Robert Beeson and Pam Engel's new UK distribution company New Wave Films has taken on yet another Cannes title: Tulpan.
New Wave acquired all UK rights for Tulpan from sales company The Match Factory on Friday night. Sergey Dvortsevoy's Tulpan then won the top prize in Un Certain Regard on Saturday.
The film is a co-production of Germany, Switzerland, Kazakhstan, Russia and Poland.
A young naval officer, Asa, travels back to the Kazakh steppe where his sister and her shepherd husband live a nomadic life. But he must marry local girl Tulpan before he can become a shepherd himself. But she doesn't take a fancy to him.
