This investment could lead to a greater variety of high-quality, director-driven films reaching international audiences. If you are a fan of auteur cinema, you may see more ambitious projects from established filmmakers receiving the funding needed for global distribution. The structure aims to support films from their earliest stages, which might allow for more creative risk-taking.
What's Next
Two current projects on the Our Films slate involve the Mubi collaboration: Paweł Pawlikowski's 'Fatherland', which is competing at the Cannes Film Festival, and Felix van Groeningen's 'Let Love In'. Entourage Ventures is currently co-investing with Mediawan's global distribution arm in other international productions, suggesting this model may be applied to future projects.
