Rikke Ennis, CEO at TrustNordisk states:
”We are proud to represent the film about Swedish star and Hollywood icon Ingrid Bergman. She was one of a kind and for the first time we will experience the world from her point of view. We are positive there will be a substantial sales potential on this film and we look forward to presenting this to international distributors for the first time in Berlin”.
Seven time Academy Award®-nominee and three time Academy Award®-winner Ingrid Bergman was one of the most talented actresses of Hollywood´s Golden Age with great performances in classic films such as CASABLANCA (1942), GASLIGHT (1944) and NOTORIOUS (1946).
