- PUENTES 2009 project I DREAM IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE by Ernesto Contreras, producer: EAVE 2005 graduate Raymond van der Kaaij was granted government support through Foprocine, the Mexican fund for Quality Film Production. The film tells the story of American linguist Robert Ambers who, while trying to save a mysterious Mexican indigenous language from oblivion, unearths the secret of its last two speakers, changing both life and death. The script was developed with support of the MEDIA Program of the European Union and the Rotterdam Media Fund. The film will be co-produced by Mexican based Agencia SHA and with this will be the first Dutch-Mexican co-production. Shooting is scheduled for late 2014 while financing and casting are currently in full swing.
- THE LOBSTER by Yorgos Lanthimos, producer: EAVE 1991 graduate Ed Guiney is in development. Dogtooth and Alps director Lanthimos and his regular co-writer Efthimis Filippou wrote the love story, set in a dystopian future where single people are given strict conditions for finding mates.
