A US-Dutch co-production, John DeBello’s Rising Tide, is in receipt of the grant of the biggest magnitude (€1,288,568). Produced by Loma Media and New Ams Film Company, the story revolves around two American brothers visiting Holland. They will find themselves ensnared in a deadly mystery which will reveal the last great secret of World War II. A similar amount (€1,260,200) was allocated to Michiel van Erp’s A Beautiful Imperfection, produced by Kaap Holland Film, and co-produced by Belgium’s Eyeworks Film & TV Drama and Italy’s Kino Produzioni. Penned by Arthur Japin and Ursula Rani Sarma, the feature will follow the vicissitudes of Lucia, Giacomo Casanova’s first and greatest love, who left Italy for Amsterdam after her face was disfigured by smallpox. Sixteen years later, once she has reinvented herself as a veiled courtesan known as Galathée, the two meet again.

The other feature-length projects supported by the agency are Jan-Willem van Ewijk’s existential adventure Alpha (€326,471, staged by BALDR film), Jorien van Nes’s documentary The Art of Stealing (€149,715, produced by Submarine Docs and co-produced by Romania’s Alexander Nanau Productions), Martijn Smits’ family flick The Biggest Slime Movie Ever (€204,960, a New Be presentation), Bénédicte Liénard and Mary Jiménez’s drama Fuga (€60,000, produced by Belgium’s Clin d’oeil Films and co-produced by Dutch outfit SNG Film with Peru’s Perpetua Film and France’s Tu Vas Voir), Susanne Opstal’s documentary Where We Belong (€90,177, produced by Halal Docs), Fien Troch’s drama Holly [+lire aussi :
