108 Media adds three more for Berlin

New Canadian distribution and international sales company 108 Media has added three more titles to its European Film Market sales slate.

The company is handling worldwide sales outside Canada on And Now a Word From Our Sponsor, directed by Zack Bernbaum and starring Bruce Greenwood and Parker Posey. Written and produced by Michael Hamilton-Wright, the comedy is about an advertising executive who can communicate only through slogans.

108 will handle world sales and Canadian theatrical distribution on Fondi ‘91, which is directed by Dev Khanna, stars Raymond Ablack and tells the story of a New Jersey soccer team’s raucous trip to Italy

Haiti Unplugged, director Daniel Oron’s film about four musicians who travel to Haiti and discover the vibrant music scene, will involve 108 on a financing level, as well as world sales and theatrical.

“These new projects are a perfect example of how flexible 108 Media can be,” said company CEO Abhishek Rastogi. “We had a lot of positive feedback in Sundance based on the fact that we can offer hybrid services as a company. We’re highly confident about this business model, as we continue to look for new titles in Berlin.”
