Heading to the EFM in Berlin is Bloodsuckers, a family thriller that marks the sophomore feature of Elin Grönblom (Ella and Friends).
The story follows Johanna, who heads off on a well-deserved vacation with her family.
“A visit to the deep Scandinavian forest leaves her drawn to a mesmerizing dark bog, where relentless mosquitoes seem to awaken something within her. As their bites take hold, her self-preserving instincts emerge, transforming her into a mother driven to extremes to finally find some peace and quiet.”
Currently in post-production, Paris‑based sales company Charades (Urchin) has boarded sales on the film, reports Variety. It is being showcased today at Göteborg Film Festival’s Works in Progress and will be officially launched by Charades at the EFM where a promo reel will be presented to buyers.
“Bloodsuckers stands out through its singular blend of psychological thriller, dark humour and an unsettling portrait of family life, exquisitely crafted and executed by Elin Grönblom and Josefin Sonck,” the company said in a statement. “It’s coming along both deeply Scandinavian and strikingly universal. It’s a film that will hit close to home – wherever home is – and we’re thrilled to be presenting it to the international market at EFM.”
Bloodsuckers is produced by Mylla Films, an ambitious genre film and TV label launched by Patrik Andersson, whose credits include Ari Aster’s Midsommar and Jakob Abrahamsson, who previously worked at NonStop Entertainment.
