Key Players in the 2012 Cannes Film Market: Elle Driver

Published on

The all women French sales agent company based out of Paris oddly has 2/3rds of the New Wave Indian films featured on the Croisette this year in Vasan Bala’s Peddlers and the epic film Gangs of Wasseypur from helmer Anurag Kashyap (see pic above). We count four Sundance Film Festival films on their slate and the most noteworthy upcoming project comes from Cherin Dabis (Amreeka) – a Sundancer herself and her latest project, May in the Summer – the winner of the 2011 Sundance / NHK International Filmmaker Award.
