- Our Films teams with Alice Rohrwacher to adapt Italo Calvino’s 'The Baron in the Trees' into a feature film.
- Alice Rohrwacher, Oscar‑nominated for Disney+’s 'Il Pupille', will direct the adaptation and is also filming 'Three Incestuous Sisters' with a star‑studded cast.
- Our Films’ new financing and distribution partnership with Mubi uses a 'village' model that attaches multiple European partners to share risk and target specialty audiences.
- Fatherland, Our Films’ Cannes Best Director‑winning biopic, earned $4.5 M in the U.S. and $4.8 M in Poland, underscoring the company’s ability to monetize niche, black‑and‑white films.
Why it matters: Our Films and Mubi secure a risk‑sharing financing model that lets European partners co‑invest in niche auteur projects, reducing upfront distribution costs and expanding the pool of specialty titles for Cannes audiences.
