CANNES -- Regent Releasing has acquired North American rights from MK2 to the Argentinean drama "El Nino Pez" (The Fish Child), the second film from director Lucia Puenzo, and "Zion and His Brother," from debut filmmaker Eran Merav. An early 2010 release in select cities are planned for both films.
Regent will distribute both films in select cities in early 2010.
"El Nino," which played both the Berlin and Tribeca fests, was produced by Luis Puenzo and Jose Maria Morales and co-produced by MK2's Marin Karmitz, Nathanael Karmitz and Charles Gillibert. Adapted from Puenzo's 2004 novel, it focuses on the teenage Lala (Ines Efron), who is in love with Guayi (Mariela Vitale), her family's 20-year-old Paraguayan maid.
"Zion," which played Sundance, was produced by Assaf Amir and Yoav Roek with co-producers Marin Karmitz, Nathanael Karmitz and Charles Gillibert. It stars Tzahi Grad and Reuven Badalov as two brothers in a gritty neighborhood in Haifa.
Regent's upcoming domestic releases include the Japanese film "Departures," this year's Oscar winner as best foreign-language feature.

Hola Diego. Queria saber si ya te llegaron los puntajes u opiniones acerca de "Agora" de Amenabar. Encontre en un diario de Galicia, que la pelicula tuvo una muy buena respuesta de la prensa durante la funcion matutina y Variety hablo bastante bien de ella tambien. Pero queria otro tipo de opiniones. No encuentro por ahora otras paginas webs o blogs que comenten que tal es la pelicula en si. Me interesa principalmente por curiosidad. Se que no esta en la competencia oficial ni nada de eso. Tampoco soy demasiado admirador de Amenabar, me parece muy sobrevalorado, pero esta pelicula en especial, me interesa mas por su contenido historico que por cuestiones cinematograficas
Gracias
Saludos
La vio uno solo de mis votantes, Alvaro Arroba (español que escribe para "Crítica" de aquí) y le puso un 3 (tres)!!!
