Don't worry, fans of Iranian director Asghar Farhadi. His latest film, Everybody Knows, may not have a distributor right now but it will very soon. The director behind some of the best dramas in recent years such as A Separation, The Past, and The Salesman (Remember his Oscars protest of Donald Trump's Muslim ban from a couple of years ago? Classy as shit.) is the kind of filmmaker distributors want to be in business with because his movies always attract attention at awards season.
The first trailer for Everybody Knows has arrived, and with Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz leading it this looks like his most accessible film yet. The story follows a Spanish woman from Buenos Aires who returns to her hometown near Madrid with her husband and kids, only for the trip to be upset with unexpected events and revealed secrets. Family turmoil and emotionally traumatic events? Sounds like Farhadi right in his wheelhouse.
The film will open this year's Cannes Film Festival, and you can bet that's when the bidding war will begin, so stay tuned.
