The first co-production deal has been signed out of Trans Atlantic Partners 2013.
German producer Sol Bondy of One Two Films is working with Jennifer Fox of Us-based Zohe Films to co-produce Fox’s feature The Tale. Vibeke Vindelov is also co-producing.
The documentary director (My Reincarnation, Flying) makes her fictional debut with the 2012 Binger Lab project.
The film is now financing and casting and will be shot in the Us in summer 2014.
“I had promised my business partners not to bring home any new projects, but when I read the script for The Tale I was blown away,” says Bondy.
Oren Moverman and Jack Lechner serve as executive producers.
Co-presenters of Tap are the Eric Pommer Institut, Strategic Partners and Ifp. The programme is aimed at facilitating co-productions and training producers to work together on independent features.
Bondy was one of Screen’s Future Leaders: Producers in 2013.

The eligibility of documentaries for awardage from both that lusted after winged woman (Emmy) and the coveted naked man (Oscar) is a labyrinthine maze from which we would never exit were we to foolishly enter. In fact, someone needs to make a documentary about That to sort it all out. Documentaries leave strange crumbs all over both the big and small screens on their long walking journey through often complicated and extremely protacted "releases".
I bring this up because a portion of the Emmy nominations were announced today (like The Grammys there are hundreds of categories) in the non-fiction fields of news and documentary. I was surprised, for example, to see Semper Fi: Always Faithful, The Loving Story and We Were Here as nominees. You may recall they were all Oscar finalists (though not nominees) back in 2011 and now they're up for 2013 Emmys! Actual nominees from that Oscar year show up too,...
