One of the more important recently new development labs on the film circuit have just unveiled their 2024 line-up. Les Arcs Film Festival’s Co-Production Village have eighteen European projects and in contention we find the likes of Sofia Alaoui, Claire Fowler and Anastasiia Solonevych. Alaoui is currently developing her sophomore feature film in Tarfaya – it finds her re-teaming with Margaux Lorier for a third time out after netting world premieres at Sundance. And speaking of Sundance, Claire Flower will be presenting her Sundance Screenwriter’s Lab workshopped Toad in France as well. Ukrainainen filmmaker Anastasiia Solonevych who worked with Under the Volcano filmmaker Damian Kocur on the Palme d’Or comp short “As it Was” is mounting what will be her feature debut film.
