Outsider Pictures Snags Costa Rican Oscar Entry ‘Memories of a Burning Body,’ Cannes’ ‘Something Old, Something New,’ Toronto Winner ‘They Will Be Dust’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Outsider Pictures has snagged North American rights to International Oscar entries ‘Memories of a Burning Body,’ ‘Saturn Return’ and ‘Reinas.’
L.A.-based Outsider Pictures, a U.S. distribution hub for Spanish-language cinema, has snagged North American rights to three International Oscar entries to the 97 th Academy Awards: Costa Rica’s “Memories of a Burning Body,” Spain’s “Saturn Return” and Switzerland’s “Reinas,” directed by Peruvian-born helmer, Klaudia Reynicke. In addition, it has picked up Cannes Directors’ Fortnight title “Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed” by Argentina’s Hernán Rosselli and Toronto Platform awardee “They Will Be Dust,” starring Chile’s Alfredo Castro and Spain’s Angela Molina. These may not be star driven or hugely commercial films, but like most independent cinema, they are labors of love, passion pieces that film-makers have worked so hard for and that any company would be proud to distribute,” said Outsider Pictures founder-CEO Paul Hudson.
