Italian distribution company I Wonder Pictures has acquired the Mexican drama-thriller “On the Road,” directed by David Pablos, which world premieres Sept. 4 in the Horizons section of the Venice Film Festival.
The film’s producers include Inna Payán and “Andor” star Diego Luna. Berlin-based sales agency M-Appeal is handling world sales.
“On the Road” follows Veneno, a rebellious young drifter, who frequents roadside diners where he sleeps with truck drivers. Urgently needing a ride, he meets Muñeco, a hard-edged driver who keeps to himself. He convinces Muñeco to take him deep into the hyper-masculine world of long-haul trucking across the north of Mexico.
