Their new international sales arm just takes the pact one step further.Įarlier today Italy's National Association of Cinematographic and Audiovisual Industries (Anica) announced a shortlist of nine films that are being considered to become the country's official Oscar entry in the Best Foreign Language Film category at the 88th Academy Awards. Vision Distribution’s muscle comes from being the sales arm of a unique content alliance formed in 2016 by pay TV operator Sky Italia and five prominent Italian production companies - ITV-owned Cattleya, Fremantle’s Wildside, Lucisano Media Group, Palomar and Indiana Production - that inked a deal to jointly release their films domestically. It also is another sign of a market shift towards sales and production forces increasingly merging. Having a new player with muscle and expertise specifically dedicated to distributing Italian movies internationally is good news for Italian producers and “signals the vitality” of the country’s current filmmaking output, says Rossi. New Italian sales company Vision Distribution, headed by veteran executive Catia Rossi, is launching from the European Film Market with a still-small multi-genre slate but big ambitions to become a leading global distributor of Italy’s domestic output.
