Argentine film agency Meikincine Entertainment has picked up worldwide sales rights to family drama “Belmonte,” the fourth feature by noted Uruguayan-Spanish filmmaker Federico Veiroj. Variety has had exclusive access to the film’s brand new trailer.
“Belmonte” receives this September its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival and days after will have its European premiere in San Sebastian.
The film portrays Belmonte, a 43-year-old divorced man, with a successful career as a painter but jealous of his ten-year-old daughter Celeste’s new family life. Following the painter’s point of view, the film focuses on the things he is attracted to, and how his sensitivity informs his art.
