The Ice Tower and We believe you their world premiere in Berlin!
Published
This year, the two films that received support from Groupe Ouest had their world premiere at the 75th Berlinale and won awards!
Lucile Hadzihalilovic developed her feature film “The Ice Tower” as part of Groupe Ouest’s Sélection Annuelle in 2017.
Starring Marion Cotillard, this free interpretation of the Snow Queen caused quite a stir.
“The Ice Tower” won the Silver Bear for best artistic contribution.
Arnaud Dufeys and Charlotte Devillers’ “We Believe You” had its world premiere in the brand-new Perspectives section of the 75th Berlinale, dedicated to first feature-length fiction films.
The film was supported by the Centre du Cinéma de la Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles as part of its light production grants program. In 2023, Charlotte and Arnaud took part in the workshop Scénario : puissance & âme with Groupe Ouest Développement to finalize the development of “We believe you”.
“We Believe You” received the jury’s special mention in the new Perspectives section of the Berlinale.
Congratulations to all the teams behind these films!
