film profile] by Chris Kraus (see interview) is today being released in France on 78 screens, distributed by EuropaCorp.
It will be interesting to see how the film fares, given its immense success at the domestic box office (see interview with producers Meike and Alexandra Kordes).
Another European film hitting screens is the highly original Body Rice [+see also:
