Amazon’s Prime Video has licensed “Blondi” for VOD in the U.S. and Latin America. Mitre, whose “Argentina, 1985” is being talked up as an international feature Oscar frontrunner, produces “Blondi.”
The film, now in post-production, will be brought onto the market by Film Factory at this week’s American Film Market.
“We are delighted to be part of Fonzi’s first adventure as a director. The script is moving and I am sure the film will leave no one indifferent”, Film Factory’s general director Vicente Canales told Variety.

Jessica Sarah Rinland’s “Collective Monologue” and Elena Martin Gimeno’s “Creature” are among the five projects selected this year at Ikusmira Berriak.
The sixth edition of the training program is now in the second segment of its residency at San Sebastian, and a different world awaits its five participants since their first meeting in March.
Rinland, an Argentine-British installation artist and filmmaker, said that it was “a small miracle” any of this year’s cohort had made it back for the San Sebastian Film Festival, where they will present their projects to the industry.
Rinland is one of five filmmakers, selected from 185 submissions, who were granted a fellowship for this year’s program, to develop her second feature, which explores the rise and fall of zoos in society.
“I feel very fortunate to be supported by an institution which backs the development of non-conventional films, especially at this time...
