\nJuho Kuosmanen, the director of Cannes prizewinner \u201cCompartment No. 6,\u201d has completed casting on feature film \u201cDream Come True,\u201d which is a bittersweet comedy inspired by a true story. His third feature film will star Magnus Millang (\u201cAnother Round\u201d), Paprika Steen (\u201cFamilies Likes Ours,\u201d \u201cFesten\u201d) and newcomer Ellen Kihri.<\/p>\n

\n\tFirst plot details have been unveiled for the film, which is scheduled to shoot later this year in Finland, Denmark and France.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDream Come True\u201d is the story of 43-year-old Rasmus, a Danish commercial diver who clears blocked drains and welds seams deep underwater for a living. Fortune smiles on Rasmus when he discovers a shipwreck during one of his dives. In the wreckage, Rasmus discovers thousands of pristine bottles of champagne from the oldest drinkable vintage in the world \u2013 a treasure worth millions.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter living with his daughter under his mother\u2019s roof for so long, this is his chance at a new life. But Rasmus will come to realize that some dreams are best left undiscovered.<\/p>\n

\n\tKuosmanen commented, \u201cDiving and underwater adventures have been passions of mine since I was a child. Ever since I started making films, it has been my dream to find a story set in a marine environment and the silent world below the surface. This film was inspired by true events, but we have distanced the story from historical facts and added a tragicomic tone familiar from my previous movies.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhile writing, I started thinking about the brilliant Danish actor Magnus Millang as the main character Rasmus. We drove thousands of kilometres all around Denmark and decided to set the story largely in Jutland. Jutland\u2019s harbors, fishing boats and rugged seascapes provide the perfect setting for an adventure film in which a diver from a small fishing village dreams of great achievements.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBoth of Kuosmanen\u2019s previous features were recognized with major awards in Cannes and went on to robust international distribution.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cCompartment No. 6\u201d won the Grand Prix in Cannes\u2019 2021 Competition, going on to be distributed by Sony Pictures Classics in the U.S. and several other key international territories. The film was shortlisted for best international feature film at the 94th Academy Awards.<\/p>\n

\n\tKuosmanen won the Cannes Un Certain Regard Prize with his 2016 feature debut \u201cThe Happiest Day in the Life of Olli M\u00e4ki,\u201d which also scooped the Zurich Film Festival\u2019s Golden Eye and a Gold Hugo in the Chicago Intl. Film Festival\u2019s New Directors Competition, going on to be distributed by MUBI in the U.S. and U.K. \u201cThe Painting Sellers\u201d (2010) won the first prize at the Cannes Cin\u00e9fondation.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDream Come True\u201d is produced by Katrin Pors from Denmark\u2019s Snowglobe (\u201cGodland,\u201d \u201cThe Worst Person in the World,\u201d \u201cFjord\u201d) and Jussi Rantam\u00e4ki, Kuosmanen\u2019s long-time production partner with Finland\u2019s Aamu Film Company (\u201cCompartment No. 6,\u201d \u201cFjord\u201d) in coproduction with Germany\u2019s One Two Films (\u201cHoly Spider,\u201d \u201cThe Secret Agent\u201d), the U.K.\u2019s Portobello Productions (\u201cCoward\u201d) and Sweden\u2019s Kjellson & Wik (\u201cGentle Monster,\u201d \u201cForce Majeure\u201d).<\/p>\n

\n\tThe film is supported by the Danish Film institute, the Finnish Film Foundation, Vestdanske Film Pulje, Business Finland, Nordic Film and TV Fund, the German Federal Film Board, Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg, DR, Yle, SR, WDR, ARTE, SVT and Creative Europe Media.<\/p>\n
