Metro Tartan secure UK rights to Villaronga film

Spanish sales house Grupo PI have sold all UK rights on San Sebastian International Film Festival competition title 'Aro Tolbukhin: In The Mind Of A Killer' to Metro Tartan.
Directed by Agusti Villaronga, Lydia Zimmerman and Isaac P Racine, the critically well-received Aro Tolbukhin is a false documentary based on the real-life story of a Hungarian man accused of burning seven people alive in a Catholic mission infirmary in Guatemala in 1981. The film is a Spanish-Mexican co-production between Oberon Cinematografica and Altavista Films.
The deal was closed following the recent MIFED market, where Grupo PI also sold all rights for Mexico and Argentina to Quality Films on comedy 'My Mother Likes Women'.
