Celine Sciamma\u2019s Berlinale competition title \u201cPetite Maman<\/a>\u201d has been sold by\u00a0MK2\u00a0Films around the world with some bidding wars in multiple territories.<\/p>\n

The critically acclaimed film, which marks Sciamma\u2019s follow-up to \u201cPortrait of a Lady on Fire<\/a>,\u201d has been sold to Alamode (Germany), Culture (Japan), Challan (South Korea) Sun (Latin America), Avalon (Spain), Madman (Australia\/New Zealand), Red Cape (Israel), Cin\u00e9art (Benelux), Cineworx (Switzerland), Angel (Denmark), Folkets Bio (Sweden), Arthaus (Norway), Swallow Wings (Taiwan), Russian World Vision (CIS), New Horizons (Poland), Weirdwave (Greece), Midas (Portugal) and Demiurg (Ex-Yugoslavia).<\/p>\n

\u201cPetite Maman<\/a>\u201d was bought by Neon for North America and MUBI for the U.K. and Turkey during the virtual Berlin Film Festival. MK2 Films is currently negotiating further sales.<\/p>\n

Described as a chamber piece, a ghost story and a fairy tale, \u201cPetite Maman\u201d follows Nelly, an 8-year-old girl who has just lost her beloved grandmother and is helping her parents clean out her mother\u2019s childhood home. While there, her mother, Marion, is overwhelmed with grief and abruptly leaves Nelly with her father. Shortly after, Nelly meets a girl her own age in the woods whose name is Marion. The two girls are played by siblings, Jos\u00e9phine Sanz and Gabrielle Sanz. Nina Meurisse, St\u00e9phane Varupenne and Margot Abascal complete the cast.<\/p>\n

The movie earned unanimous acclaim at Berlin Film Festival,\u00a0with\u00a0Variety\u2019s Peter Debruge praising Sciamma\u2018s talent in delivering \u201clively portraits of young people, if not necessarily on fire, then at least smoldering with the urgent uncertainty of identities still in formation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sciamma has indeed explored childhood and teenage years in previous films, notably \u201cTomboy\u201d and \u201cGirlhood.\u201d Her last film \u201cPortrait of a Lady of Fire\u201d won best screenplay at Cannes in 2018 and was nominated for a Golden Globe.<\/p>\n

\u201cPetite Maman<\/a>\u201d was produced by Lilies Films and co-produced by France 3 Cin\u00e9ma.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
