PulsarContent, a leading film production and distribution company, has recently announced the successful closure of major deals for their upcoming biopic film titled 'Niki.' The movie revolves around the life of French-American artist Niki de Saint-Phalle and marks the directorial debut of renowned French actor Céline Sallette.
One of the key highlights of 'Niki' is the casting of talented actress Charlotte Le Bon, known for her roles in films like 'The Walk' and 'Saint-Laurent,' in the lead role of Niki de Saint-Phalle. The film portrays the artist's journey from the age of 23, when she was a model and aspiring actor, married with a two-year-old daughter named Laura. Fleeing the oppressive McCarthy era in the United States, Niki and her daughter find solace in France, where they initially experience a short-lived euphoria. However, as time passes, Niki's mind is haunted by distant and frightening memories. It is through her artistic vocation that she finds salvation.
The distribution deals for 'Niki' have been closed with several prominent international companies, including Neue Visionen in Germany, Movies Inspired in Italy, Paradiso in Benelux, Praessens in Switzerland, Vercine in Spain, Magic Films in CIS, Best Films in the Baltics, Shaw in Singapore, Sky Digi in Taiwan, and Immovision in Brazil. This extensive distribution network ensures that the film will reach audiences worldwide, allowing them to witness the captivating story of Niki de Saint-Phalle.
In addition to 'Niki,' PulsarContent has also unveiled their impressive lineup for the European Film Market (EFM). One of the notable films is 'Eternal Visionary,' directed by Michele Placido, which delves into the life of Luigi Pirandello, the acclaimed Italian playwright, novelist, and poet who received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1934. Another exciting addition to their slate is 'Mikado,' a heartwarming family film written and directed by Baya Kasmi, known for her previous works 'I'm All Yours' and 'The (in)famous Youssef Salem.'
Céline Sallette, the director of 'Niki,' is a highly respected figure in the French film industry. She gained recognition for her breakthrough role in Bertrand Bonello's 'House of Tolerance,' which competed at the Cannes Film Festival in 2011. Sallette has also ventured into directing with her short film 'L'Arche des canopées,' which premiered at Cannes.
With the successful closure of major distribution deals for 'Niki' and an exciting lineup for the EFM, PulsarContent continues to establish itself as a prominent player in the international film industry. Audiences can eagerly anticipate the release of 'Niki' to witness the inspiring story of Niki de Saint-Phalle and her journey as an artist.
