In the first US sale of a Competition title at Cannes, Wild Bunch has sold Arnaud Desplechin‘s A Christmas Tale to IFC.
The family drama, which screens here on Friday, stars an ensemble cast including Catherine Deneuve, Mathieu Amalric, Chiara Mastroianni, Emmanuelle Devos, Anne Consigny and Melvil Poupaud.
Produced by Why Not, it will be released by Bac in France.
Furthermore, Wild Bunch has closed a Japan sale on Steven Soderbergh’s Che Guevara films to Nikkatsu – the double-feature is also running in Competition.
