Oscar Nominees, Emmy Winner Among Prominent Directors, Producers Bringing Projects to IDFA Forum
Oscar nominees and an Emmy winner are bringing projects to this year's IDFA Forum, running from November 17-20 in Amsterdam.
“In an intriguing cinematic exercise that straddles fiction and documentary,” a release notes, “the film seeks to bare intricate workings of domination and manipulation, as ex-members of the notorious Christian sect Faderhuset direct scenes with well-known Danish actors, including Trine Dyrholm and David Dencik.” Four-time Oscar nominee Signe Byrge Sørensen ( Flee, The Look of Silence, The Act of Killing) co-produces Nanyang, directed by Enrico Parenti, and produced by Susanna Trojano, a project that will get a hearing at the Pitch Forum. “The project ushers us through ‘Perestroika’ in the ‘Transparency Booth’, an inflatable confessional that allowed for a rare moment of unhindered self-expression in the final years of the USSR—which, from today’s vantage point, offers revealing insight into history’s foresight.”
