Magnolia Pictures International has announced a slew of key sales on its EFM slate led by a pair of deals with Dogwoof in the UK.
Lorna Lee Torres and her team licensed rights across multiple territories on recent SXSW world premiere Body At Brighton Rock and upcoming US releases Hail, Satan?, The Brink, and Oscar-nominated RBG.
