Eurimages funds next pic by Mungiu
France's Why Not Prods. is joining with Romania's Mobra Films and Belgium's Ces Films du Fleuve, Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne's The town-based shingle, to produce "Provizoriu," the next film by Romanian filmmaker Christian Mungiu. Put together by Mungiu, "Provizoriu" might be the Romanian convent-set tale from the 23-year-old's passion for another femme inmate. Why Not might be charge producer. Mungiu's "4 Several days, three days, and two Days" won Cannes' 2007 Palme d'Or, and was released inside the U.S. by IFC. "Provizoriu" is among 18 European co-productions that have attracted lower 5.85 million ($7.6 000 0000) in subsidies within the Council of Europe's Eurimages Fund. Also attracted on for gold gold coin is Abdellatif Kechiche ("The Important Thing in the Grain"), who's installed on helm "Le Bleu est une couleur chaude." A coming-of-age drama, "Bleu" is defined at France's Wild Bunch and Quat'Sous Films, Kechiche's own label, Belgium's Scope Photos, which makes way compared to that country's tax-break gold gold coin, and Spain's Vertigo Films, which Wild Bunch co-has. "Bleu" changes an image novel by France's Julie Maroh of a teen who falls for just about any blue-haired girl. Further Eurimages subsidy visitors are Jean-Paul Lilienfeld's "Arretez-moi," with Sophie Marceau and Miou-Miou, produced by France's Rezo and Luxembourg's Iris, and "When Day Breaks," from Serbia's Goran Paskaljevic ("Honeymoons"). "Bleu" won Eurimages' finest 2011 award: $728,000. "Song in the Sea," from Tomm Moore ("The Important Thing of Kells"), attracted lower $715,000, as did Alex and David Pastor's "The Ultimate Days" and "Camiel Borgmann," from Nederlander auteur Alex van Warmerdam ("Waiter").
