Iuli Gerbase: Last News

Alex Ritman Fresh from his appearance in mega-buzzy Cannes competition entry ‘The Substance,’ Dennis Quaid is now set to join Zazie Beetz and Elizabeth Debicki in another wild-sounding project, “This Blue is Mine.” First announced by Variety ahead of the festival and being launched in the market by HanWay and UTA, “This Blue is Mine” is described as an “original, psychosexual sci-fi drama,” and marks the English-language debut of Brazilian-born director Iuli Gerbase. The story is set amidst a family holiday at a tropical resort, where Arthur (Quaid), a guilt-free bon viveur, surprises everyone by bringing his new beautiful and enigmatic girlfriend, Ivy (Debicki). Ivy’s arrival and her odd behavior throws the already delicate dynamics off balance with Arthur and his daughters.

With the Cannes Film Festival right around the corner, the Cannes film market is really heating up this week, with dozens of new projects up for grabs. One of the most exciting projects coming together from HanWay Films is “This “Blue Is Mine,” a new psychosexual thriller starring “Atlanta” and “Deadpool 2” star Zazie Beetz and Elizabeth Debicki from “The Crown” and “The Guardians of The Galaxy” franchise.

Guy Lodge Film CriticIt’s not often one sees a film arguing against its own topicality, but that’s what happens at the outset of “The Pink Cloud,” a subtly fevered quarantine drama that is so of the moment, you all but wonder how they had time to shoot and cut it just last week. But they didn’t, as an introductory disclaimer flatly clarifies before the opening credits: Brazilian writer-director Iuli Gerbase’s debut feature was written in 2017, filmed in 2019, and “any resemblance to actual events is purely coincidental.”Well, then.
