Sales outfit LevelK is to debut Scandinavian horror-sci fi Encounters at the AFM.

Also on the slate are Anders Thomas Jensen’s Men and Chicken starring Mads Mikkelsen; Sucker, which stars Timothy Spall as a con-man; and documentary Drone.

Encounters, directed by Anders Johannes Bukh, follows a group of young filmmakers who travel into the Swedish woods to shoot a low-budget horror film. After they become lost one of the actors disappears only to return hours later, naked and in a catatonic state.

The film is set for a VOD release in conjunction with Danish horror festival Bloody Weekend.

Pre-sales will continue on Anders Thomas Jensen’s black comedy Men and Chicken, with Mikkelsen and David Dencik in the lead roles.

There will be a promo for Sucker, director Ben Chessell’s debut feature in which Timonthy Spall plays an ageing conman who takes a young novice under his wing.

Warfare doc Drone comes from Norwegian director Tonje Hessen Schei and will play at IDFA and CPH:DOX.
