Euforia har via nordiske samarbeidspartene kjøpt filmene Hierro og Enter the Void. Filmene ble kjøpt lenge før Cannes. Euforia opplyser at Hierro kommer til jul, og Enter the Void en gang til neste år. Gode nyheter! Du har kanskje ikke hørt om Hierro? Den spanske filmen ble vist i sideseksjonen Semaine de la Critique (Kritikeruken). Hierro er spillefilmdebuten til Gabe Ibáñez, og handler om gutt som forsvinner på en ferge på vei til øya El Hierro.

Her er  for øvrig et utdrag fra pressekonferansen til Enter the Void:

«It was very difficult to explain the film project to producers to get financing… Unlike Irreversible, where there wasn’t a script, just three pages about an idea, I carried around a one-hundred page screenplay, in which I described the visual effects in the most minute detail, so that people could get an idea of where I was coming from, as a director… I enclosed a graphic booklet with the screenplay, to provide even more explanation. Then, we had to succeed in copying those visuals, and even going beyond them… When you’re producing and shooting, and even in post-production, ideas keep flooding in, and often they’re the best ones.»

«I had a lot of freedom when I was shooting. This type of film is practically impossible to finance. In the United States, it’s unthinkable. It’s in English, so it looks American. It was shot in Japan. If it wasn’t for Vincent Maravel, Marc Missonnier, Olivier Delbosc, and Pierre Buffin, there wouldn’t be a film today. They’re extremely open-minded. As long as we didn’t blow the budget to smithereens, they encouraged me to make the film as strange as possible. That kind of encouragement is really thrilling.»
