EXCLUSIVE: <\/strong>Radu Jude’s Do Not Expect Too Much From The End Of The World<\/em>, which has just been submitted as Romania’s official entry into the International Oscar race, has been picked up by Mubi for multiple key territories. <\/p>\n The streamer has taken rights for U.S., Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, India, Turkey and Latin America in advance of its North American premiere at Toronto on September 9. <\/p>\n Sales company Heretic has also cinched distribution deals in a flurry of territories: I Wonder Pictures (Italy); Filmin (Spain); Njutafilms (Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Norway); Films4U (Portugal); HBO Europe (Eastern and Central Europe); Aurora (Poland); Filmgarten (Austria); European Film Forum Scanorama (Lithuania); and Cinobo (Greece). <\/p>\n Breaking News<\/span><\/p>\n Reviews<\/span><\/p>\n Do Not Expect Too Much From The End Of The World<\/em>, which premiered at Locarno last month, explores the dizzying landscape of cinema, capitalism and technology in post-totalitarian Romania. <\/p>\n The film is split in two parts: The first follows Angela, an overworked and underpaid production assistant who must drive around the city of Bucharest to film the casting for a Safety at Work<\/em> video, commissioned by a multinational company. In the second part of the film, one of the interviewees, Marian, reveals on camera that his work-related accident is due to the company’s negligence. His statement ignites a scandal, which forces him to reinvent his story to suit the company’s narrative. <\/p>\n Deadline’s Damon Wise described the title as a “complex satire” and a film that “could be genuinely seminal in its anarchic and totally individualistic approach.” <\/p>\n Heretic’s Head of Sales Ioanna Stais said: “Ever unapologetic, Radu’s witty and subversive work is both a product and a reflection of today, cementing its incredible impact on audiences. We are truly excited to be sharing his work with the world, a work that speaks the language of our times.” <\/p>\n The film is produced by Adrian Sitaru of 4 Proof Film and Ada Solomon of microFilm, Romania. It’s co-produced by Paul Thiltges Distributions (LUX), Les Films D’ici (FR) and Kinorama (CR) in association with Bord Cadre (Ch) & Sovereign Films (UK) which will also be handling the film’s UK distribution. <\/p>\n Heretic repped Jude’s last title Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn<\/em>, which won the 2021 Golden Bear in Berlin. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nRelated Stories<\/h3>\n
