The film is based on the true story of the exorcism of Emma Schmidt, an American woman who was allegedly possessed by a demonic entity. 

The plot revolves around two priests, Theophilus Riesinger (Al Pacino) and Joseph Steiger (Dan Stevens), who must overcome their differences and work together to perform a series of dangerous exorcisms on Emma to save her soul. 

The Ritual is inspired by the 1935 book Begone Satan!, which has been at the center of faith-based debate for nearly a century. The original account of the events went on to inspire The Exorcist book and William Friedkin’s famed 1973 film.

The Ritual is an authentic portrayal of Emma Schmidt, an American woman whose demonic possession case remains the most thoroughly documented exorcism in American history.

Ashley Greene, Patricia Heaton, Abigail Cowen and Ritchie Montgomery also star in director David Midell's feature that hits theaters this month.

Prorom is releasing The Ritual in Romania (on May 30), Bulgaria (June 6), Hungary (on July 3) and Czech Republic & Slovakia (on July 10).

They broke the rules by falling in love, and in order to protect their son, they go underground. With a large bounty on their heads, and the vengeful Shadow Force hot on their trail, one family’s fight becomes all-out war.

Mark Strong, Da'Vine Joy Randolph and Cliff “Method Man” Smith also appear in Joe Carnahan's movie.

"If you’re craving a film that blends a messy romance akin to Mr. and Mrs. Smith with hoards of assassins after the protagonists like in John Wick, then Shadow Force is basically the movie for you". (Ema Sasic - nextbestpicture).

Prorom is releasing Shadow Force in Romania (on May 9) and Hungary (on June 12).

Currently in post-production for a 2026 release, the drama retells the true story of a youngster raised by ostriches in the Sahara.

The Desert Child follows Maistre’s hit Autumn and the Black Jaguar, which grossed $30M at the international box office, and upcoming release Moon The Panda, which hits French and Eastern Europe cinemas this April.

Moon the Panda will be released in Hungary (on April 10), Romania (on April 11), Czech Republic and Slovakia (on April 24) by Prorom.

„Over the years, our local audiences have truly fallen in love with Gilles de Maistre’s movies. So we are very happy that after Mia and The White Lion, The Wolf and The Lion and Autumn And The Black Jaguar, we can soon enchant children and adults alike with The Desert Child” says Axel Böhm, Co-Managing Director at Prorom.

As with most of Maistre’s previous features, which also include The Wolf and the Lion and Mia and the White Lion, the The Desert Child involves working with children and real-life animals, in this case ostriches and young Fennec foxes.

Prorom released all of this titles in Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia with a combined box-office of over $1.8M (source: box-officemojo.com).

The Desert Child is produced by StudioCanal and Catherine Camborde at Mai-Juin Productions, a Mediawan company. StudioCanal is handling international sales and will also release the film theatrically in France.

Prorom bought two Spanish comedies from Latido Films (Who Is Who? and Babies Don’t Come With Instructions).

“Prorom is expanding the slate of European comedies with Spanish movies and we’re happy to have established a partnership with Latido Films for this purpose” says Axel Böhm, Co-Managing Director at Prorom.

”Berlin was good for us and the main takeaway is that the market is really fluid, changing continuously and nothing is permanent: our advantage is precisely that we handle great movies and have diversified our content and finally find the right buyer for the right film,” said Latido Films CEO Antonio Saura for Variety.

Marina Seresesky’s Paco León-starred Babies Don’t Come with Instructions, is a redo of Eugenio Derbez’s megahit Instructions Not Included.

Another Spanish comedy, Martín Cuervo’s dysfunctional family story Who Is Who (in photo), with Elena Irureta (Patria), Kira Miró (Everybody Does It) and Salva Reina (The 47), will also travel to Eastern Europe via Prorom.
