Xavier Henry-Rashid’s London-based sales agency Film Republic has picked up world rights to Rolando Colla’s “What You Don’t Know About Me,” which receives its world premiere this week at the Zurich Film Festival.
The story follows the relationship between a refugee and a Swiss national, who get caught up in the turmoil of unfounded police accusations against him. Colla says he was inspired to make the film, which is based on a true story, because he wanted to explore what happens to the refugees when they are no longer in the headlines. In the film the refugee faces a choice between deportation or integration by means of a forced confession.
“What You Don’t Know About Me” features Linda Olsansky (“Happiness Is a Warm Gun”) and Koudous Seihon, seen previously in Cannes Critics’ Week title “Mediterranea.”

Who doesn't love a good snow-covered horror flick? Movies like The Thing and Adam Green's Frozen have shown that horror stories and winter make for a damn fine pairing, and the found footage flick Frost is the next one set to splatter blood in the snow.
We've been talking about the film for a long time here on Dread Central, and Entertainment One has just announced that it's headed to DVD over in the UK on February 10, 2014. And we just love the quote they decided to use on the cover.
Check out the art below along with the film's trailer!
Icelandic filmmaker Reynir Lyngdal directs Frost, which was shot in the Icelandic highlands. Ingvar Thordarson and Julius Kemp produced for Kisi Production, with Markus Selin and Jukka Helle (Solar Films) and Karla Stojáková (Axman Production) co-producing. It also had backing from the Icelandic Film Centre.

We've been talking about the foreign flick Frost for quite some time around these parts, and now a full trailer has come, complete with English subtitles. That's sort of akin to saying it's ribbed for her pleasure. Well, not really, but the word ribbed always makes us smile.

Ingvar Thordarson and Julius Kemp are producing for Kisi Production, with Markus Selin and Jukka Helle (Solar Films) and Karla Stojáková (Axman Production) co-producing.
