Variety can reveal the teaser for the first of these “Do Not Enter” (“No Entres”), now in post, a found footage shock fest which FilmSharks founder Guido Run will introduce to buyers at Berlin’s European Film Market by way of the teaser trailer.

In their fervent pursuit to satisfy their audience with ever more shocking content, they ignore their instincts. The teaser shows them grappling with their doubts but deciding to continue on because there...

As science fiction, and dystopian cyberpunk in particular, surge in mainstream popularity – see “Blade Runner 2049,” “Dredd” or the upcoming “Alita: Battle Angel” – a question often asked is: Can this genre be adapted for younger audiences?
A possible answer might be that yes, and animation is the perfect medium with which to do so.
Portugal’s Animais, a company best-known for its award-winning animated short films, has a possible answer of their own. The company behind “Between the Shadows,” which pitched at Annecy before winning the Arte France Prize in 2016 and making it to the final cut of 12 films short-listed for that year’s Cesar Awards, is working on their first series, the 3D animated “7 Boxes,” which takes place in a rainy, neon-lit city which will be familiar to cyberpunk fans.
