is back with the gangster black comedy “Ballad for a Pierced Heart.” The story follows Olga, an attractive woman who decides to leave her husband, a businessman, for a nightclub owner and former pop singer. And as if this was not enough, she takes a million euros with her. While her husband becomes paranoid and vows to take revenge, the underworld in the small provincial town is in turmoil over the adulterous couple.
“Kokoloko,” directed by Mexico’s Gerardo Naranjo, grabbed the attention of the press during Tribeca’s online edition, before winning the festival’s best actor award. It is now being shown for the first time to buyers. The film is the story of a tragic love affair, set in a small coastal community in contemporary Mexico. It centers on Marisol, who dreams of joining a Self-Defense Group or Community Guards, and living in freedom.
The Match Factory’s Michael Weber commented: “The virtual Marché du Film opens a channel of communication for our industry at a time when it’s essential to look forward and find the means to present the work of our filmmakers and discuss our upcoming slate, even if the physical Marché is irreplaceable.”
