The Mediawan-owned company 24-25 will produce the film, with Ginger & Fed representing it internationally. Wanecque and the Through the Fire actor Sami Bouajil will be joined by The Night of the 12th actor Pierre Lottin and Declaration of War fame Valerie Donzelli.
The film will be released in the second half of next year. Bouajil plays a journalist who pairs with his intern daughter Ava to cover the death story of a young girl. The investigation leads to a dark world created by a group of supremacists.
The Ginger and Fed production head talks about the film
The former TF1 studio in charge, Sabine Chemaly, is heading the new film sales studio Ginger & Fed, which has international sales rights for the film Vultures. According to her, the movie is a thriller that amalgamates a complicated father-daughter relationship.
“It’s a thriller, but it’s also a film about a reconciliation between a father and his daughter, and it delivers a fascinating glimpse into the world of journalism,” Chemaly said.
At the same time, the studio is handling sales of two other projects, including Gregoire Vigneron’s comedy Million Dollar Madness and a family comedy-drama called Present Perfect. The former is produced under the Curiosa Films banner and stars Christian Clavier. Chemaly describes the film as a “race-against-the-clock comedy with a moral dimension.”
Present Perfect was directed by Raphaele Moussafir and Christophe Offenstein and will be released by Warner Bros France in October 2024.
