Our feature film 'Double Blind' has been chosen to take part in the Frontières International Co-Production Market in Montreal in July.

Over the course of 4 days, the Frontières International Co-Production Market presents 20 projects in development (10 European and 10 North American) which are presented to a large and diverse group of prominent industry professionals (producers, financiers, sales agents, distributors).

The 20 Official Selection projects participate in an opening pitch session to the 450 industry professionals in attendance, who then meet one-on-one with the projects via a meeting scheduling service.

It's a huge honour to be selected, and an exciting next step for our horror/thriller 'Double Blind'.
