Rule 34 wins the Golden Leopard in Locarno

In July 2021 the first three projects supported by Göteborg Film Fund was presented at the Scandinavian terrace in Cannes. One of them was Brazilian Rule 34/Regra 34, directed by Julia Murat, one of 145 (!) applicants from Brazil, for post-production support.

The film has now won Locarno’s Golden Leopard, as the second Brazilian film ever. Rule 34 is a bold, provocative and beautiful film about law, sexuality and politics and it breaks many ”rules”. The film is produced by Tatiana Leite and Julia Murat, for Esquina filmes, in co-production with Juliette Lepoutre at Bubbles.
