Latido Films

Latido Films is a Madrid-based international sales agent specializing in Spanish-language and European co-productions, currently pushing a broadened slate that spans arthouse drama, elevated genre, and high-value remake properties.

Current mandate

Latido Films operates as a Madrid-rooted international sales agent with a mandate that has deliberately widened in recent years. The company now represents a slate that spans arthouse and crossover drama, elevated Latin fantasy and horror, dark comedy anthologies, and family-oriented 2D animated features, alongside international co-productions with adventure-driven, whimsical sensibilities. Executives have publicly stated the expansion is a strategic response to a fast-changing market, designed to offer producers a broader range of alternatives. Territory coverage is international in scope, with documented deals across Europe, Asia, Latin America, and Australasia, and active pursuit of remake rights buyers, particularly in Asian markets.

Recent activity illustrates the breadth of Latido's current slate. Jim Sheridan's judicial drama "Re-Creation" has been sold into Spain, Australia and New Zealand, Bulgaria, Taiwan, Portugal, and Greece, with airline rights set and U.S. and U.K. negotiations ongoing. "Homo Sapiens?" is generating distribution deals in Spain and Andorra, Greece and Greek-speaking Cyprus, and Israel, with Poland in active talks and remake rights under negotiation in multiple markets. "The Whisper" has drawn offers from Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. Festival breakout "Deaf" has sold to Romania's Culoar Films and is in advanced Latin America negotiations alongside music documentary "The Flamenco Guitar of Yerai Cortés." The remake pipeline is particularly active: Indian rights to "Under Therapy" have closed with Alliance Media and Entertainment following earlier U.S. and Israel deals, and "Champions," which has sold to more than 50 territories and grossed $28 million worldwide, now has an Indian remake released and an Italian remake in production with Ascent Film.

Material reaches Latido primarily through producer-direct outreach with a finished or near-finished film, festival placement, and established co-production relationships. The company's seeking statement signals a clear editorial preference: stories of resistance, self-growth, and struggle are described by executives as consistently welcome, and high-concept Spanish films with remake potential, especially those with demonstrated local performance, represent a documented growth priority. No unsolicited pathway is documented in tracked deal flow; every observed representation relationship has originated through producer relationships, festival positioning, or co-production structures.

Common questions about Latido Films

What kind of films does Latido Films represent?

Latido represents a deliberately broadened slate anchored in Spanish-language and European co-productions. Current titles span arthouse and crossover drama, elevated Latin fantasy and horror, dark comedy anthologies, family-oriented 2D animated features, and music documentaries. The company has a stated editorial preference for stories of resistance, self-growth, and struggle, and a documented growth focus on high-concept Spanish films with strong remake potential, particularly those that have already demonstrated local box office performance.

Does Latido Films handle pre-sales for film financing?

Latido's tracked deal activity centers on territory rights sales at international film markets rather than documented pre-sale financing structures. However, as an established international sales agent with multi-territory reach across Europe, Asia, Latin America, and Australasia, the company is positioned to provide the kind of territory-by-territory sales estimates that producers use to unlock production financing. Filmmakers seeking pre-sale support would typically approach Latido with a package at an early stage through a producer relationship.

What film markets does Latido Films work at?

Latido is an active participant in major international film markets. Tracked deal activity references territory sales consistent with presence at markets such as the Cannes Marche du Film, the European Film Market in Berlin, and the American Film Market. The company's multi-territory deal flow, covering Europe, Asia, Latin America, and Australasia simultaneously across multiple titles, reflects the cadence of a sales agent operating across the full annual market calendar.

How do I get my film in front of Latido Films?

Every representation relationship tracked in Latido's recent deal flow has originated through producer-direct outreach, festival placement, or established co-production structures. No open-call or unsolicited submission pathway is documented. Filmmakers with a finished or near-finished Spanish-language or European co-production, particularly one with festival traction or remake potential, are best positioned to approach the company through a producer relationship or via a sales consultant familiar with the Spanish market.

What are Latido Films' strongest territories?

Documented deal flow shows consistent activity across Southern and Eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America. 'Re-Creation' has confirmed sales in Spain, Australia and New Zealand, Bulgaria, Taiwan, Portugal, and Greece. 'Homo Sapiens?' has closed deals in Spain and Andorra, Greece and Greek-speaking Cyprus, and Israel. 'Deaf' and 'The Flamenco Guitar of Yerai Cortés' are in advanced Latin America negotiations.
