Rome, January 27, 2026 – DANDI.media, a boutique law firm specializing in entertainment law and European co-productions, announces its presence at Berlinale EFM 2026 (February 13–16) as legal agent for Doppio Nodo Double Bind, to present film projects seeking international partners.
The projects
ANIMAL RESISTANCE, directed by Marco Serrecchia and co-written with Silvana Tamma, is a feature film exploring the relationship between humans and animals across different historical eras, from the sixteenth century to the present day. Through stories of animal resistance, the film looks at how humans have judged, studied and confined other species.
TERRA (Khak), directed by Raha Shirazi. In a distant future, children are grown underground. At the age of 16, they must claw through soil and roots to the outside world to lead a life of synchronicity with the Earth. But two will struggle to adapt to surface life, their fate uncertain, in an ecological fable.
The strategic partnership
Doppio Nodo Double Bind, founded by Marco Serrecchia, Raha Shirazi and Michelangelo Frammartino, produced Il Buco, winner of the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival 2021.
DANDI.media | Entertainment Law & Co-Production Strategies, led by attorneys Claudia Roggero and Donato Di Pelino, brings to Doppio Nodo its experience in European co-productions, particularly with Eastern European markets. We work alongside the producer from the earliest stages of development, not only when the contracts are drafted: co-production structure, chain of title, agreements with authors and partners, and the requirements of public funds and tax credit.
Meetings
At Berlinale EFM and at MIA, DANDI.media met producers, distributors and financiers on behalf of Doppio Nodo to develop partnerships on these projects. The conversations are ongoing: if you missed us in Rome, write to us and we will set up a call.
