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.

The long-awaited film adaptation of Katja Brandis' bestselling series impresses with stunning visual effects and a gripping story!

At first glance, Carag looks like an ordinary boy, but behind his bright eyes lies an incredible secret: Carag is a shapeshifter. He grew up in the wilderness as a puma and now lives in his human form in the world of people.

It's only when Carag is accepted into Clearwater High, a secret boarding school for Woodwalkers like him, that he feels a sense of belonging. He quickly finds friends in Holly, a cheeky red squirrel, and Brandon, a shy bison. And Carag is going to need those friends-because the world of the Woodwalkers is full of mysteries and dangers.

Adventure, friendship, and transformation await in this captivating cinema adaptation of the bestselling series by Katja Brandis. 

Prorom is distributing the movie in cinemas from Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Directed by Paul Feig, The Housemaid stars Sydney Sweeney as Millie, a struggling young woman who is relieved to get a fresh start as a housemaid to Nina (Amanda Seyfried) and Andrew (Brandon Sklenar), an upscale, wealthy couple… but soon learns that the family’s secrets are far more dangerous than her own.

Principal photography began on January 3, 2025, in New Jersey, and it is expected to wrap on February 14. Michele Morrone will also star in the upcoming movie.

The screenplay is by Rebecca Sonnenshine, based on the bestselling novel by Freida McFadden.

The novel has been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than a year, 75 weeks and counting, and on the Amazon bestsellers list for 98 weeks and counting. It also has a record-breaking half-billion pages read on Kindle and is the No. 2 most-read title for Kindle’s 10th anniversary behind only the Harry Potter series. It has sold more than 3.6 million copies in English has been translated into 40 languages.

The book is available in Romania (Menajera – Editura Bookzone) and in Hungary (A téboly otthona – published by Álomgyár Kiadó).

The Housemaid is scheduled to be released in December 25, 2025. Prorom will release the movie in the same period in Eastern Europe.

Based on one of the best-selling videogame franchises of all time, this action-adventure-comedy follows Lilith (Cate Blanchett), an infamous treasure hunter with a mysterious past, who reluctantly returns to her home planet of Pandora to find the missing daughter of Atlas (Edgar Ramírez), the universe’s most powerful S.O.B.

She forms an unexpected alliance with a ragtag team of misfits ― Roland (Kevin Hart), once a highly respected soldier, but now desperate for redemption; Tiny Tina (Ariana Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Florian Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound, rhetorically challenged protector; Dr. Tannis (Jamie Lee Curtis), the scientist who’s seen it all; and Claptrap (Jack Black), a persistently wiseass robot.

These unlikely heroes must battle alien monsters and dangerous bandits to find and protect the missing girl, who may hold the key to unimaginable power. The fate of the universe could be in their hands ― but they’ll be fighting for something more: each other.

Long before producing the film, Ari Arad, whose credits include the recent hit Uncharted, had enjoyed playing the game upon which it’s based, calling it “cool and weird, and one of the more exciting and emotional games I’ve experienced. The game is action-packed but there’s a sweetness to it, which I thought was unique.”

Another key figure in Tiny Tina’s life is her stalwart, hulking, and loyal bodyguard Krieg. “It’s a bizarre relationship,” says Roth, “because both Tiny Tina and Krieg have been discarded. They are two misfits who take care of one another; there’s love and acceptance between them, in a big brother-little sister type way. Tiny Tina can take care of Krieg when he needs it, and he can and will kill anyone to protect her. The film is very much about the family you choose; within that family you learn to sacrifice and that’s when you are at your strongest.”

“The difference between Krieg and all the other Psychos is the soft spot in his heart he has for Tiny Tina,” says Florian Munteanu, who is best known for portraying fearsome boxer Viktor Drago in Creed II and Creed III.

According to Roth, it’s a perfect fit between actor and role. “Florian grounds Krieg in a way I didn’t know was possible. He brings real humanity and multiple layers to a character that on the surface seems totally insane and savage.”

Principal photography took place in Budapest, where the BORDERLANDS art direction teams, led by production designer Andrew Menzies, constructed Pandora from Hungary’s unique geological features and from inside Budapest’s formidable sound stages.

There, they brought to life Pandora’s mix of the wild American West, humor, and an epic fantasy space adventure.

Budapest provided impressive otherworldly locations, heightened by director of photography Rogier Stoffers’s striking cinematography, including rock quarries, mines, and underground tunnels.

Production also took over the whole of Stern Studios. “I love that we got to invent everything,” comments Roth. “It’s a lawless world, where everyone is figuring out how to just survive.”

Award-winning filmmaker Eli Roth made his directorial debut in 2002 with the hugely successful film Cabin Fever, and his follow-up titles – Hostel, Hostel Part II, Knock Knock, and Death Wish – have earned him critical praise and a reputation as a true innovator in the horror space.

Prorom distributes Borderlands in Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bulgaria.

Produced by the legendary Sam Raimi, Boy Kills World was scripted by Arend Remmers and Tyler Burton Smith.

The story takes place in a bizarre, dark dystopian universe and centers on a deaf and mute character, Boy (Skarsgård), who navigates this depressing world with his otherworldly imagination. Tragedy strikes when Boy’s family is brutally murdered. When his fight or flight instincts kick in, Boy finds himself on a life-threatening trek into the darkly forested jungle.

There, he meets a shaman (Yayan Ruhian) who takes Boy under his wing and launches him into a cutthroat coming of age journey where he encourages his new pupil to leave his youth behind and pick up the baton as a highly trained assassin.

Skarsgard and Rothe are joined in the cast by Yayan Ruhian, Andrew Koji, Isaiah Mustafa, Famke Janssen, Brett Gelman, Sharlto Copley, Quinn Copeland, twin brothers Cameron and Nicholas Crovetti, and Michelle Dockery.
Sam Raimi and Zainab Azizi are producing Boy Kills World through Raimi Productions.

Roy Lee, Simon Swart, Wayne Fitzjohn, Alex Lebovici, Stuart Manashil and Dan Kagan are also producers.

Reza Brojerdi and Andrew Childs are executive producers.

Prorom will release Boy Kills World in cinemas from May 10 (Romania) and June 20 (Hungary).
