Participant and French sales agent mk2 films have teamed up to jointly represent worldwide rights to Rahul Jain\u2019s documentary feature \u201cInvisible Demons<\/a>.\u201d The feature film will have its world premiere at Cannes in the cinema for the climate special section.<\/p>\n

In \u201cInvisible Demons<\/a>,\u201d Jain explores the dramatic consequences of India\u2019s growing economy and what it means on the broader world stage.<\/p>\n

Using Jain\u2019s experimental style and strong visuals, the documentary zooms in on the situation in New Delhi, where climate change is impacting the daily lives and health of 30 million locals.<\/p>\n

Set for July 12, the premiere will mark the Cannes debut of Jain, a rising filmmaking who made his critically acclaimed debut feature with \u201cMachines<\/em>,\u201d which won Sundance\u2019s best cinematography award in 2017. \u201cMachines<\/em>\u201d went on to nab 17 international awards at more than 160 festivals.<\/p>\n

Rob Williams, Participant\u2019s VP of content sales, and Fionnuala Jamison, mk2 films\u2019 MD, negotiated the distribution deal and will launch global sales for \u201cInvisible Demon<\/a>s\u201d at the Cannes Market.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Invisible Demons<\/a>\u2019 is a stunning work by Rahul Jain about the consequences of climate change and who it will affect, illuminating what the future may hold not only for the people of Delhi, but for all,\u201d said Participant CEO Diane Weyermann. She executive produced the film with Jeff Skoll (\u201cSpotlight<\/em>\u201d and \u201cJudas and the Black Messiah\u201d), along with Frank Lehmann (\u201cThe Last Witness<\/em>\u201d).<\/p>\n

Jamison said mk2 films has \u201calways admired Participant\u2019s ethos and values, and relishes the opportunity to partner with them on this vital and timely film.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith powerful imagery and a focus on first-hand accounts, Jain delivers a visceral experience of an environmental crisis,\u201d Jamison said.<\/p>\n

\u201cInvisible Demons<\/a>\u201d was executive produced and co-financed by Participant. It was produced by Toinen Katse and Ma.Ja.De. FilmProduktions, with support from FFF-MDM-YLE-AVEK. Producers are Iikka Vehkalahti, who previously collaborated with Jain on \u201cMachines<\/em>,\u201d and Heino Deckert, who co-produced Bartosz Konopka\u2019s Oscar-nominated \u201cRabbit \u00e1 la Berlin<\/em>,\u201d as well as Participant\u2019s \u201cAquarela<\/em>\u201d and \u201cHuman Flow<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInvisible Demons<\/a>\u201d was written by Jain and boasts a top-notch key crew, including editor Yael Bitton (\u201cMachines<\/em>\u201d) and Vehkalahti.<\/p>\n

Participant will also be at Cannes with \u201cStillwater<\/em>,\u201d Oscar-winning director Tom McCarthy\u2019s Marseille-set film starring Matt Damon and Camille Cottin. The movie will have its world premiere out of competition.<\/p>\n

MK2 Films, meanwhile, will have eight films in selection at this year\u2019s\u00a0Cannes Film Festival, including Joachim Trier\u2019s \u201cThe Worst Person in the World<\/a>\u201d in competition, and Andrea Arnold\u2019s \u201cCow<\/a>,\u201d playing in the Cannes premiere section.<\/p>\n
