Wide Management has sold Christian Poveda's documentary La Vida Loca to Siren Visual for theatrical distribution in Australia and New Zealand.

The deal was struck following the film's world premiere at the San Sebastian film festival on Saturday. In addition, Wide Management is negotiating the rights to La Vida Loca for the US and UK.

Poveda's film about rival gangs in El Salvador is a co-production between Spain's El Caiman, La Femme Endormie in France and Mexico's Aquelarre Servicios Cinematograficos.
