"5 x 2"("Five Times Two") was presented in a preview screening in Stockholm on March 14, in the presence of François Ozon and Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi.
On March 14, the director François Ozon and actress Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi made their first trip to Sweden to present a preview screening of "5 x 2." A discussion with audiences was held after the screening, followed by a dinner with Swedish movie and media personalities at the Residence of the French Ambassador.
During their visit, François Ozon and Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi were much in demand by the local press, taking part in numerous interviews with Danish and Swedish media representatives.
Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi has also been crowned guest of honor at the Natfilm Festival in Copenhagen (March 31 – April 17, 2005), at which "5 x 2" is presented in a preview screening as festival opener. Thanks notably to support from Unifrance, film critics have been able to make the trip to Copenhagen and Stockholm to interview Ms. Bruni-Tedeschi and Mr. Ozon.
"5 x 2" has been acquired in four of the five Scandinavian territories. In Norway, the film was released by Oro Film in three theaters on February 4 and it was launched in Sweden by Triangelfilm in six theaters on March 18. Camera Film will release it in Denmark in three theaters on April 8, and it will hit Finnish screens in August, distributed by Future Film.
