Key Players in the Cannes Market: Rezo

Last year the sales/production/distribution company hit a triple (in the prize category) with Dolan’s I Killed My Mother, this year they move up a section into the UCR with Heartbeats (see pic above). Worth noting in the sales department is Antoine Blossier’s debut horror film Prey (which I was hoping would find a spot in Cannes this year) and Julie Delpy is calling up her parents for a sequel to her rom com, 2 Days in Paris. with 2 Days in New York.

Rezo started off the year by grabbing international headlines with their controversial doc film about ordinary folk playing with kilowatts in a social experiment designed game show. Now they hit the Croisette once again by pairing off with wunderkid Quebecois helmer Xavier Dolan for 2 in 2.
