Paprika’s newest film, All You Need is Love, has landed international distribution deals.  The romantic comedy from Oscar-winning director Susanne Biers (In A Better World) will be brought to the UK by Arrow Films and to the US by Sony Pictures Classics. Additional agreements have been inked for Turkey (Euromedia LLC.), India (Picture Works), Mexico (Cine Video), and Middle East (Falcon Films). Written by Oscar winner Anders Thomas Jensen (who also penned the screenplay for In A Better World), the picture stars Steen opposite Trine Dyrholm (Troubled Water) and Golden Globe nominee Pierce Brosnan. The picture will screen first in Denmark and Sweden in August, followed by the Netherlands and France in December.
