Mumbai: Big Screen Entertainment Group (BSEG) has acquired world rights to the new French language vampire film, Sodium Babies, co-directed by brothers Benoît and Julien Decaillon.

"We screened Sodium Babies at this year’s Cannes Film Market. It stood out among the numerous titles we previewed. The picture has a graphic novel visual element similar to the movies Sin City and 300. The story certainly has a crossover international appeal and we believe it will perform very well internationally," said Big Screen CEO Kimberley Kates.

Big Screen senior vice president Michael Manasseri added, "One of the great things about attending the world film markets is having the opportunity to discover terrific new talent. The Decaillon Brothers are up-and-coming filmmaking stars. We were blown away by their cinematic visual style and are thrilled to be representing this title."

Big Screen will begin marketing and selling Sodium Babies at the upcoming American Film Market in Santa Monica, California this November.
