Bornedal's "Just Another Love Story" to compete at Sundance


Ole Bornedal and Thura Film's latest feature film "Just Another Love Story" will have its international premiere at Sundance Film Festival (17–27 January 2008), where it is selected to run in the World Cinema Competition – Dramatic.

"Just Another Love Story" has already brought in 236,000 admissions in Denmark, placing it among the top five national films for 2007.

This is the story of Jonas, a family man who is disenchanted by life in the suburbs. His life takes a dramatic turn, when he causes a car accident, leaving young Julia in a coma. When Jonas visits Julia at the hospital, her family mistake Jonas for her new exotic boyfriend, Sebastian, whose return from abroad they had all been expecting. Jonas plays the part, but life is not lived on fantasies and exotic dreams – and one day truth comes knocking at the door. What do you do when the wrong thing feels right?

"Just Another Love Story" is produced by Michael Obel for Thura Film. The film has been been pre-sold to Canada, the United Kingdom, Russia-CIS, Ukraine, India, South Asian Region, Brazil, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
