The institution that would be
most likely to distribute my film is British film companies because the product
is highly dedicated to suit British situations however, having said that this
film is very generic and the themes and ideas are generic. Which means that
most institutions would be able to put my show on air. The film is about
struggle and hardship, which is not specific to just one specific area or
country because, every country has their own version of hardship and struggle
and people in similar positions. So even
the major film institutions would be able to produce films to a similar genre
to my film.
However having said that when researching films of similar genre I found that there were institutions that filmed the same genre but shipped it to other European countries like Holland.
Cipher Films are the company that was part of the production process for both Kidulthood and Adulthood. The type of films distributed by Cipher films are all about Mobsters/Gangster and the plot always seems to involve either Prostitutes, Gun Crime, Gangs and Violence. All of their productions are based in London (with the exception of one). The target audience would appeal to the target audience because that is the sort of film/ Tv they would be interested in. The gritty, hardcore London in which even if they cannot directly relate to it the will be able to understand the themes and ideas.
For example the film titled "All Things To All Men" is a smart, engaging film, hitting a confident stride right away, in its attitude to London, taking on the big, iconic locations without looking touristy. Rufus Sewell is Parker, a bent copper looking into a cocaine case, but his interest goes beyond making a collar. By nicking a medium-level villain Mark Corso (Pierre Mascolo) on charges that he can withdraw later if he wishes, Parker has a leverage on his father, crime lord Joseph, played with menace and gravitas by Gabriel Byrne. In return for springing his son, Parker wants Corso Sr to do him a favour concerning a thief, Riley, played by Toby Stephens.
So from that brief synopsis we can see the similarities and differences between Motherland and All Things To All Men. but most importantly we can see the link which is the production company and the type of Gangster/Drama films they produce.
