The UK’s Johnny Kevorkian and Sophie Fiennes, Israeli Tom Shoval, Norwegian Iram Haq and Russia’s Angelina Nikonova will be among the filmmakers presenting their upcoming projects at the Les Arcs Co-Production Village this year.
The event, running Dec 13-16 within the Les Arcs European Film Festival (Dec 13-20), will present 25 projects in development and a further 10 Works-in-Progress.
“I thinks it’s a good sign that filmmakers whose projects we presented in development are now coming back to show their films in Work-in-Progress, which is the case for Sparrow and Rams,” said Les Arcs industry head Vanja Kaludjercic.
“Conversely, we’ve got directors who presented in Works-in Progress, such as Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurðsson, who came with Paris of the North last year, who is back with his new project The Tree...

The Sweeney (15)
(Nick Love, 2012, UK) Ray Winstone, Ben Drew, Hayley Atwell, Damian Lewis, 112 mins
The original TV cop show has been so updated here, it barely registers as the same product. But for all the steely modern cityscapes and pulsating action, this a 21st century cop thriller with 1970s values, both in terms of its shouty, louty, rule-bending lawmen (Winstone is a parody of himself) and its "hand in your badge" cop-movie cliches. And as for political correctness – leave it aaaaht!
Premium Rush (12A)
(David Koepp, 2012, Us) Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Dania Ramirez, Michael Shannon. 91 mins
This zippy-chase thriller puts you in the saddle of an ace New York cycle courier, seeking to deliver a mystery package that everyone's after. It's a carbon-neutral Speed.
To Rome With Love (12A)
(Woody Allen, 2012, Us/Ita/Spa) Jesse Eisenberg, Penélope Cruz, 112 mins
After the blip of Midnight In Paris, it's back to the usual late-period...

TWENTY8K
Stars: Parminder Nagra, Kaya Scodelario, Michael Socha, Jonas Armstrong, Nichola Burley, Stephen Dillane, Kierston Wareing | Written by Paul Abbott, Jimmy Dowdall | Directed by David Kew, Neil Thompson
Don’t let Twenty8k‘s yoof-speak title fool you; this murder mystery’s as old-fashioned as they come. A Paris-based fashionista, Deeva (Parminder Nagra), returns to her hometown of London in order to clear her brother’s name of murder. He seems a likely suspect, but something doesn’t seem quite right and naturally there’s a gigantic conspiracy behind it all. Damning evidence comes to light, witnesses are offed and a character who seemed trustworthy turns out to be not so trustworthy after all.
Trust me when I say you’ve seen this movie. The plotting’s not bad, and the twist and turns keep you guessing for the bulk of the film, but when the curtain’s drawn and the...

A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending in Newham the set of a new and exciting British production, Twenty8k (2012). Co-directed by David Kew and Neil Thompson, produced by Martin Carr and starring Parminder Nagra, Stephen Dillane, Jonas Armstrong and Kierson Wareing; in a script written by Paul Abbott. It tells the story of a young woman who returns home to East London to defend the name of her brother who has been branded a murderer, but as she seeks to uncover the truth, lies and conspiracy come to the fore with twists aplenty.
