Alexander Skarsgård Boards Gothic Horror ‘The Wolf Will Tear Your Immaculate Hands’ by ‘Clara Sola’ Director Nathalie Álvarez Mesén
“The Wolf…” marks a major milestone for producer Nima Yousefi, CEO of Sweden’s prestige boutique outfit Hobab, credited for the Venice Horizons winner “Paradise Burning” and co-producer of the 2025 Oscar nominated “The Apprentice”. The seasoned executive, who’s been shepherding Mesén for a decade, said her “distinctive voice” displayed in “Clara Sola,” billed by Variety reviewer Jessica Kiang as a ‘spellbinding debut,” is why he was able to assemble such a prestigious creative team and complex multi-territory financing.
Indeed, on “The Wolf,” international partners on board include Resolve Media in the U.S., European co-producers Quiddity Films in the U.K., Need Productions in Belgium and Still Vivid in Iceland. The mix of soft and private-sector finance was raised via Film i Väst, SVT, VOO, OBE & Be tv, Proximus, Shelter Prod, Tint, Finite Films, Northern Ireland Screen, the British Film Institute’s UK Global Screen Fund, Eurimages, Creative Europe, the Swedish Film Institute, the Film and Audiovisual Center of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, Screen Brussels, Taxshelter.be & ING, the Tax Shelter of the Belgian Federal government, the Icelandic Film Centre, the Icelandic Tax Credit, and Nordisk Film & TV Fond.
