The Match Factory Secures International Deals for Miroirs No. 3

The Match Factory has successfully closed several international distribution agreements for Miroirs No. 3, the latest feature from renowned German director Christian Petzold. This comes just ahead of its world premiere in the prestigious Directors’ Fortnight section at the Cannes Film Festival.

Distribution Partners Across Europe and Beyond

Les Films du Losange will oversee the film’s distribution in France, while Imagine Film Distribution will handle releases in the Benelux region. Other key partnerships include M&M International for South Korea, Yeni Bir Film in Turkey, Leopardo Filmes for Portugal, Stadtkino Filmverleih in Austria, Independenta Film for Romania, A-One Film for the Baltics, and Demiurg for the territories of the Former Yugoslavia.

North American Pre-Buy by Metrograph Pictures

In a significant move, Metrograph Pictures has pre-purchased the film for distribution in North America.

A Compelling Narrative of Resilience

Miroirs No. 3 centers on Laura (played by frequent Petzold collaborator Paula Beer), a piano student from Berlin who survives a car accident during a weekend getaway in the countryside. Although physically unharmed, Laura is left emotionally shaken and is taken in by a local woman who witnessed the incident. As she integrates into the household—alongside the woman’s husband and adult son—the four begin to forge a delicate familial bond. However, this newfound harmony is soon disrupted as hidden histories resurface, forcing Laura to confront her own unresolved past.

A Stellar Cast and Creative Team

This film marks Petzold’s fourth collaboration with Beer, who earned the Silver Bear for Best Actress at Berlinale 2020 for her performance in Undine. The cast also features Barbara Auer (known for The Book Thief and Yella), Matthias Brandt (from Transit and Farewell to Europe), and Enno Trebs (seen in Afire and The White Ribbon).
