Jupiter Holdja (Jupiter's Moon) is a 2017 Hungarian drama directed by Kornél Mundruczó. It competed for the Palme d'Or in the main competition section at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival.
Aryan is a Syrian refugee trying to make his way into Hungary from Serbia, along with his father and many other wretched souls. They are all caught, and find themselves in a web of cynicism and corruption.
Hungarian production company Proton received support through Creative Europe’s Single Project scheme for the development of this film.
Louisa Dent, Managing Director of Curzon Artificial Eye, said:
"Creative Europe support makes a significant contribution to Curzon's ability to champion European film. It not only helps us take acquisition risks and mount ambitious releases of non-national European films, but also encourages collaboration with European partners such as sales agents and filmmakers."
