Filmatique, one of the rising online distributors of international cinema, has launched its first Talents Initiative, an online film festival promoting first and second projects made by budding filmmakers from around the world.
A portmanteau of “film” and “boutique,” the web site launched in 2017, releasing a single title each week under a monthly concentration, such as “American indie,” “Norwegian women” and “new Asian voices.” Ursula Grisham, one of the company’s three founders and head curator, told Variety that Filmatique strives to give attention to underrepresented, art-house films in an online media landscape that can overwhelm viewers with popular releases.
