In a deal negotiated at this year’s Berlin European Film Market, Spain’s Film Factory and France’s Ugc Distribution have come to terms on a French all rights distribution deal for Argentine writer-director Luis Ortega’s “El Angel.”
Film Factory handles international sales rights on the film which reunites Film Factory with Argentina’s K & S and broadcaster Telefe and Pedro and Agustin Almodovar’s Madrid-based El Deseo. The quartet had previously teamed on Pablo Trapero’s “The Clan,” and Damián Szifron’s 2015 Oscar nominee “Wild Tales.”
For “El Angel,” Sebastián Ortega’s high-flying Buenos Aires-based Underground Productions – creator of Netflix’s “El Marginal” and big Telefe hit “Cockfighter “” – also produced.
The calibre of French distribution is often regarded as a bellwether to the tenor of distributors an art film may eventually secure worldwide. In Ugc Distribution, “El Angel” has attracted one of the grandees of France’s distribution scene.
