“Forgotten We’ll Be,” the latest film from director Fernando Trueba, an Academy Award winner and nominee , has been sold to Italy, the film’s sales agentstriking a deal for Italian distribution with Lucky Red, a classic arthouse and independent film distributor.
The deal has been brokered by Vicente Canales, managing director of Film Factory Ent., and Stefano Massenzi, Lucky Red head of acquisitions. It marks the latest licensing coup for “Forgotten We’ll Be,” a title which hit the online Cannes Marché in June as one of the few titles from the Cannes Festival’s Official Selection Faithfuls section – featuring the Selection’s biggest names – to be brought onto the market at the Cannes Marché.
The deals come when international sales on most films have slowed in the extreme, with sales agents accumulating an ever weightier list of territories under negotiation rather than territories actually sold. Written by David Trueba, selected as Colombia’s Academy Award submission and one of Trueba’s biggest films in two decades, “Forgotten We’ll Be” is produced by Dago García Producciones for Colombia’s Caracol TV. Fully funded by the broadcast network group, it forms part of a bold line of big international auteur titles at Caracol that takes in Ciro Guerra’s Oscar-nominated “Embrace of the Serpent” and Cannes Directors’ Fortnight hit “Birds of Passage.
