Deals closed in France, Russia and Hong Kong among others.
Swedish director Lukas Moodysson’s latest feature We Are The Best!, currently screening at the London Film Festival, has racked up several more sales.
TrustNordisk has closed a number of new deals on the film, securing distribution in France (MK2), Russia (Caravella), Greece (One from the Heart), Mexico (Cannibal Networks), Hungary (Vertigo), Estonia (Estin Film) and Hong Kong (Edko).
The film received its world premiere in Venice two months ago and screened at the Toronto International Film Festival in September
TrustNordisk has so far sold the film to more than 30 countries including the US, UK, Australia, Benelux and Italy.
It will next travel to the Tokyo Film Festival - which kicks off today - where the film will screen in competition.
Moodysson’s seventh feature film revolves around Bobo, Klara and Hedvig, three young outsiders in 1980s Stockholm who despite their differences find unity in music and form a punk band without having any instruments - even though everybody says punk is dead.
It was produced by Lars Jönsson for Memfis Film, co-produced by Film I Väst, SVT and Zentropa in co-operation with Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR) and with support from the Swedish Film Institute, The Danish Film Institute and Nordisk Film and TV Fond.
