Kino Lorber Acquires Competition Title 'In Another Country': Cannes

Hong Sang-soo’s In Another Country stars Isabelle Huppert and is playing in the competition section at the Cannes Film Festival. Kino Lorber has acquired all U.S. rights and plans a fall festival circuit and national theatrical rollout later in 2012. The English- and Korean-language film features two-time Cannes Best Actress winner Huppert playing three different characters in three different story segments about French tourists visiting the same seaside resort — all spanning from the imagination of a young film student. The deal was struck by Kino Lorber CEO Richard Lorber and CEO Youngjoo Suh of South Korea’s Finecut.
