hot new film My Summer of Love, fresh from a triumphant Toronto
showing and a substantial US distribution deal, will headline 成人论坛 Films'
presence at the upcoming Times BFI 48th London Film Festival.

ContentFilm plc releases the film in the UK on October

Other 成人论坛 Films co-productions lined up for London include
the World Premiere of Saul Dibb's much anticipated debut feature Bullet
Boy starring Ashley Walters, a provocative and powerful look at
gun crime in inner-city London, and Danny Boyle's Millions, a
quirky comic tale of two young lads who stumble upon the haul from a
bank robbery.

Currently in production are:

Stephen Frears' new film, Mrs Henderson Presents,
the true life story of eccentric Windmill Theatre founder Laura Henderson,
starring Judi Dench and Bob Hoskins, and produced by Norma Heyman, David
Aukin and Bob Hoskins;

and Debbie Isitt's sharp comedy Confetti, starring
among others Martin Freeman, Jessica Stevenson, Felicity Montagu, Jimmy
Carr and Alison Steadman, which takes a look at the wild world of the
wedding industry.

Michael Caton-Jones' intense drama Shooting Dogs,
starring John Hurt and Hugh Dancy, set against the Rwandan genocide;

hearings in South Africa, the film stars Oscar winner Hilary Swank and
rising British star Chiwetel Ejiofor.

"Our three LFF titles illustrate perfectly the
scope of our work at 成人论坛 Films," commented David Thompson, Head

"We are proud of our long-standing involvement
with Pawel, having co-financed Pawel's previous success Last Resort.
