Producing and selling films worldwide since 2008.
Other Angle Pictures is a boutique world sales agent, launched 15 years ago by Laurence Schonberg and Olivier Albou. It handles about 10 films a year, most of them being French, and most of the French films being comedies because we like comedies, and we like to see them travel so that people can laugh around the world.
That being said, we tend to diversify into different genres, such as Arthouse films, English language films, Thrillers, Documentaries, basically we will look at any material but we only pick up films that we like, and that we know we can sell.
Being producers as well, we can also build international co-productions and bring some financing to the movies. After two years of Covid, we look forward to seeing our friends and buyers again in the real world and audiences going back to the movies with even more desire than before.

HAPPINESS THERAPY
(FÊLÉS)
The members of the Arc-en-ciel home, an authentic community center in Marmande, are ordinary people but violated by life. Psychologically fragile, they are in the middle: neither sick enough to be taken care of by institutions, nor valid enough to face the violence of the world alone. They therefore find refuge in this incredible little house, their Noah’s ark, of which they are president, secretary, treasurer, and above all decision-makers of the activities. They manage themselves there under the leadership of Pierre, the founder of the place, who leads a daily fight to ensure its sustainability... This home turns out to be the last bastion of the methods of François Tosquelles, a brilliant psychiatrist who became a revolutionary by suppressing all visual, functional or administrative barriers between caregivers and patients.
