Italy's Intramovies moves into distribution

Rome-based sales company Intramovies is moving into distribution in Italy.

The company is launching the new Intramovies Picks labels to distribute some of the movies on the international sales slate to Italian audiences.

For 2012-2014 the five or six titles will include Brazilian film The Best Things In The World (As Melhores Coisas Do Mundo) by Lais Bodanzky and Chilean film En La Cama by Matias Bize. Both will be released theatrically in autumn 2012.

Marco Valerio Fusco, who heads Intramovies Picks, says: “Intramovies often represents foreign film productions. In an Italian market in which traditional distribution is rigidly tied into the subsequent possibility of TV sales for obvious reasons of recouping the initial investment, these films often don’t find their space. Intramovies Picks aims to be an agile distributor outside of these schemes and hopefully will become the brand for this new adventure in distribution.”
