Mubi has picked up rights to Joachim Trier’s latest movie Sentimental Value, which has just been revealed in competition at next month’s Cannes Film Festival.
Starring Renate Reinsve (The Worst Person in the World), Stellan Skarsgård (Dune), Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas (A Beautiful Life) and Elle Fanning (A Complete Unknown), Sentimental Value has so far been light on synopsis but is described as “an intimate and moving exploration of family, memories, and the reconciliatory power of art.”
Mubi has taken all rights in the UK, Ireland, Latin America, Turkey and India. Theatrical release plans will be announced in the coming months. Mk2 Films is handling sales for all other territories.
The movie is the second consecutive Trier film that Mubi has distributed. Mubi also sold The Worst Person in the World, the Oscar-nominated Norwegian pic starring Reinsve about a medical student in Oslo who begins a relationship with a comic artist 15 years her senior. That film was the third in Trier’s loose Oslo trilogy and was co-written with his long-time collaborator Eskil Vogt, who is also a co-writer on Sentimental Value.

The pic has just been revealed as part of the Cannes lineup. Other films to make the cut include Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme and Ari Aster’s Eddington.
