À propos

Fondée en 2015, NEXT FILM DISTRIBUTION est une société de distribution et de ventes internationales, de courts et long-métrages.

En choisissant nos projets au coup de cœur, nous soutenons un cinéma audacieux, éclectique et exigeant. Animation, fiction, documentaire, nous défendons un large éventail d’oeuvres, encourageant un regard d’auteur, humain et ouvert sur le monde.

NEXT FILM DISTRIBUTION was born from the will of two partners: Patrick Hernandez (producer and co-founder of BAGAN FILMS) and Anthony Trihan (with 13 years of experience at Luna Distribution) to develop a feature film distribution business and international short film sales. 

NEXT first released two feature-length documentaries: A sweet rebellion, by Manuel Poutte, devoted to citizen movements, and vincent and me by Edouard Cuel and Gaël Breton, on disability. NEXT FILM then released two fictions: Hostile, a genre film by Mathieu Turi and Gutland, a rural thriller by Govinda Van Maele. 

Since then, NEXT alternates fiction and documentary: release in 2019 of the comedy-documentary The Chinese and me by Renaud Cohen, release in 2020 of the restored version of the Breton militant documentary Plogoff, stones against guns by Nicole Le Garrec, after her selection at Cannes Classics in May 2020. Finally, The last prisoner, A Albanian political thriller by Bujar Alimani was released in July 2020.

NEXT développe également une activité de ventes internationales pour le court métrage. Nous travaillons avec les acheteurs traditionnels du court métrage, chaînes de télévision et plateformes. Nous travaillons également à la mise en place des programmes de courts métrages pour une présentation en salle de cinéma. Les programmes sont constitués en collaboration avec les exploitants, explorant des thèmes ou des genres de cinéma (comédie, cinéma de genre).

NEXT FILM is a member of the SDI (Syndicate of Independent Distributors).
