The USA, LATAM, Spain, Japan, Korea, The UK, and France are under discussions with top players. Guido Rud, CEO at FilmSharks says: "This a unique film that has a very complex post production with high level assets that are normally seen in a US Studio film and having this level of perfectionist director such as Gonzalo Gutierrez makes us be very careful in all details. All US Studios and OTT's are chasing this film for multi territory, it's total madness."
