The Spain-UK-Netherlands co-production is produced by Wave of Humanity, Basque Films and Atlantika Films, in association with Kwanon Films and Roy Export, and co-produced by Submarine Sublime and Constellation Prods. It received festival support from the UK’s Global Screen Fund.
Earlier this week Cannes hosted a 100th anniversary screening of Chaplin’s 1925 masterpiece The Gold Rush.
