Exclusive: Jan Naszewski’s Warsaw-based sales outlet New Europe Film Sales has signed My Love Affair With Marriage, Signe Baumane’s second feature animation which today was confirmed to premiere in Tribeca Film Festival’s competition program.
In the movie, from an early age, songs and fairytales convinced Zelma that Love would solve all her problems as long as she abided by societal expectations of how a girl should act. But as she grew older something didn’t seem right with the concept of love: the more she tried to conform, the more her body resisted.
New Europe previously sold Baumane’s debut, Rocks in My Pockets, which premiered in Karlovy Vary in 2014 and was screened at more than 160 festivals.
My Love Affair With Marriage is a Latvia, U.S. and Luxembourg co-production and was produced by Roberts Vinovskis at Locomotive Productions, Sturgis Warner and Signe Baumane at The Marriage Project...
