After a crazy year where they brought six or seven titles to Cannes (including Tulpan, Waltz with Bashir) in various competition categories, this year The Match Factory bring only a pair of titles in Ajami and Kinatay. Nonetheless, they also bring along their batch of well-performing films from Berlin. They aren’t a production company, but highly selective sales company that work with producer’s from all over the world. And that is why I’m including them in this producer’s patch series. Update: they just included Aktan Arym Kubat’s next feature The Light to their stable.
