According to Penny Wolf, Head of Sales and Distribution for Goldcrest Films, "We are delighted to have Eyeworks' Stricken included in this year's screenings. This is a wonderful platform giving great support to the European film industry by creating an event which brings specialty European films directly to US buyers."

Claudia Landsberger, EYE Film Institute Netherlands and EFP Vice-President, further states, "With the rapid evolution of our industry at this time, we are more committed than ever to providing opportunities which help European films to find a wider audience".
