  • A cool new psychological thriller.
  • Who’s behind this exciting project.
  • Why it’s a big deal for Cannes!

You won’t believe what just got picked for Cannes! We just heard some super exciting news coming straight from the festival. Get ready, because a brand new psychological thriller called ‘Los Eastman’ is heading to the famous Fantastic Pavilion. How cool is that?

This project sounds like it’s going to be intense. We’re talking moody lighting and a deep dive into someone’s mind. Imagine the visual style – probably lots of shadows and close-ups, giving it a really unsettling aesthetic. Definitely our kind of vibe!

It’s the brainchild of Colombian filmmaker Mauricio Leiva-Cock. And guess who’s backing it? France’s Urban Factory and Mexico’s Fidelio Films. Big names in the film world!

Urban Factory’s Frédéric Corvez spilled the tea on how they found it. They discovered this gem at Bogotá’s BAM Producers Meeting. His partner, Florencia Gil, was even a mentor there. So, they saw the spark early on!

Being picked for the Fantastic Round Robin at Cannes’ Fantastic Pavilion is a huge deal. It means the film world is buzzing about it. Just like everyone was talking about when John Travolta got his surprise lifetime achievement award there! So much excitement.

Our Take

We are so ready for this one. A psychological thriller from a fresh voice? Yes, please! It’s awesome to see new stories and new talents getting the spotlight at big festivals. We’re already picturing ourselves on the edge of our seats, maybe with some protein for energy, watching this unfold. We can’t wait!
