Neon has acquired North American, UK and Australia & New Zealand rights to Cristian Mungiu’s family drama Fjord starring Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve.
Shooting has wrapped in Norway on the Norway-Sweden-Denmark-Finland-France-Romania co-production about a Romanian father and Norwegian mother who move with their children to a remote Norwegian village. They bond with the neighbours, however when the family is suspected of disturbing behaviour they become the focus of scrutiny.
Goodfellas handles worldwide sales and Neon will release theatrically in the US nationwide. Producers are Mobra Films, Eye-Eye Pictures, Why Not Productions, and Goodfellas, alongside Snowglobe, Aamu Film Company, Garage Film, FilmGate Films, and Film i Vast – supported by Eurimages and Creative Europe Media.
Sarah Colvin negotiated the deal for Neon with Goodfellas.
Mungiu previously won the Palme d’Or for 4 Months, 3 Weeks And 2 Days and won best director for Graduation and best screenplay for Beyond The Hills at the festival.
