Overview
- The New York indie distributor 1-2 Special acquired all North American rights to Sandra Wollner’s Everytime, a deal reported Friday by multiple trade outlets.
- Everytime won the top prize in Cannes’s Un Certain Regard competition, giving the film strong festival momentum before its sale.
- The film is Wollner’s third feature and stars Birgit Minichmayr with cinematography by Gregory Oke, credits that helped attract buyer interest.
- Charades handled international sales and negotiated the North American deal but no U.S. release date or platform plans have been announced.
- The acquisition underscores how festival awards can speed sales for emerging arthouse films and expands 1-2 Special’s festival-focused roster after its 2025 launch.
