Veteran Indie filmmaker Jim Jarmutch premiered his new film “Father Mother Sister Brother” at the Venice Film Festival today, where Journalists asked him about MubiStreaming platform that co-produced the film-especially about the condition of Mubi $ 100 million funding round Leaded by Sequoia Capital.
“I was disappointed and disappointed with this relationship,” Jarmush said, seeing that his own “relationship with Mubi began long ago, and he was fantastic to work on the film.”
Many filmmakers – including people related to Mubi – Signed an open letter Criticizing streammer to accept funds from Sequoia and supporting Israeli’s defense tech startup banana firm meant that “the financial growth of Mubi as a company is now clearly associated with massacre in Gaza.” (Founder and CEO of Mubi Later insisted “Any suggestion that our work is related to the financing of war, it is just untrue.”)
For his share, Jarmush said in a press conference of his film that he is “not a spokes” for Mubi, but an independent filmmaker who “has taken money from various sources to fund my films.”
“All corporate money is dirty,” he said.
