Which countries have co-produced ‘I Matter’, the mid-fest film at IFFI 2026?
- A.Romania, Germany and Belgium
- B.Romania, France and Italy
- C.Hungary, Germany and Belgium
- D.Romania, Belgium and India
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Romania, Germany and Belgium, the three countries behind the co-production. The film carries dialogue in Romanian and Romani, runs for 101 minutes and follows Rebeca, a young Roma woman leaving an orphanage as her father prepares to come out of prison. Option B replaces two of the partners with France and Italy, neither of which is listed for this film. Option C drops Romania, the country whose language and social setting the film is rooted in, and puts Hungary in its place. Option D adds India, which is a natural guess for a film premiering in Goa but wrong, since the Indian connection here is only the festival premiere. For revision, keep the trio together with the award from the 83rd Venice International Film Festival.
