Pop the champagne – the Danish Film Institute is sending Thomas Vinterberg’s Another Round to the 2021 International Oscar race.
The pic stars Mads Mikkelsen as one of a group of high school teachers who test a theory that they will improve their lives by maintaining a constant level of alcohol in their blood. It was a Cannes label selection and screened at Toronto, going on to win awards at the San Sebastian and London film festivals.
Another Round was selected ahead of Malou Reymann’s A Perfectly Normal Family and Frederik Louis Hviid and Anders Ølholm’s Shorta by a Danish Film Institute committee, which wrapped its decisive meeting just now.
The committee was comprised of chairman Claus Ladegaard, Noemi Ferrer (Danish Producers), Ali Abbasi (Danish Directors), Mette Heeno (Danish Screenwriters), Jan Weincke (Danish Cinematographers), Nanna Frank Rasmussen (Danish Film Critics), Søren Søndergaard (Danish Cinema Owners...

As Cph:dox launches today, Screen previews this year’s industry programme.
Two time Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker Lucy Walker (Waste Land, The Tsunami And The Cherry Blossom) will see her new project presented at the Cph:forum (Nov 11-12), the international financing and co-production event at Cph:dox (Nov 5-15) in Copenhagen.
The film, titled SlumGods [pictured], will follow a hip-hop crew in Dharavi, Mumbai, one of the world’s largest slums and the setting for Danny Boyle’s 2008 Oscar-winner Slumdog Millionarie.
Produced by Sonita Gale for Galeforce Films, the project is currently in pre-production and is looking to raise $2m (€1.8m) in financing at the Forum.
Other projects at this year’s Cph:forum include a new film from local The Act of Killingn and The Look Of Silence producer Signe Byrge Sørensen titled Ghost Wives, about a Chinese man accused of murdering six women to sell their bodies for an ancient tradition known as ‘ghost weddings’.

Screen Film Summit: International panel talks China opportunities, but warns about tough Us market.
A UK-China co-production treaty is edging closer to reality, a British Film Institute executive told the Screen Film Summit today.
BFI Chief Executive Amanda Nevill is currently visiting China with the Prime Minister’s delegation.
BFI Head of International Isabel Davis [pictured] said this morning of that trip: “A cultural agreement has been signed, with intention to sign a co-production agreement. We’re extremely close in all honesty….It’s good news for British film that it’s being taken so seriously. I’m confident we’ll get there quite soon on having a treaty.” [Dcms later confirmed that Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport Maria Miller and Chinese Minister for Culture Cai Wu signed a cultural agreement in Beijing that starts a five-year programme of cultural exchanges.]
A co-production treaty would be important because it would let British co-productions qualify for revenue-sharing releases in China outside of the usual quotas. “A co-production treaty opens up that opportunity to give UK co-produced films a much larger opportunity in the marketplace,” Davis said.
