The Match Factory presents international arthouse films by both acclaimed

directors and new talents, who are dedicated to telling stories in their own

original style. We set up strong and lasting relationships with filmmakers

from all over the world, offering a home for their work as a reliable partner.

Among them there are such acclaimed masters as Aki Kaurismäki, whose

entire library we represent, Fatih Akin, Tom Tykwer, Andreas Dresen, Thomas

Vinterberg, Theo Angelopoulos and many others. Furthermore, we’re always

looking out for young directors to help pave their way to the international

market place, directors such as Jasmila Zbanic, Claudia Llosa or Athina

Rachel Tsangari. In the short history of the company, we won the most

important awards at all major international festivals, including the Palme

d’Or, one Prix Du Scénario and one Prix de la Mise en Scène in Cannes, one

Golden Globe, three Golden Bears, two Special Jury Awards in Venice and

three times the Golden Shell in San Sebastian.

signature on their work. We focus on international arthouse productions by

emerging talents, whose realizations differentiate themselves through an

original approach and unique style. media luna offers a broad spectrum of

feature-length films and documentaries as well as television movies and

documentaries.

With our line-up we intend to reflect the many differences and encounters

among the world cultures to highlight the world‘s fascinating diversity.

producers and directors, in providing individual marketing strategies to each

film for an effective and sensible placement on the international market.
