South Korean production powerhouse Map (Making A Print) has inked a strategic partnership with Singapore-based Momo Film Co to jointly develop and bankroll a slate of cutting-edge projects across Asia, it was unveiled at the Cannes Film Market.
The alliance pairs Map’s commercial and critical muscle with Momo’s emerging-talent pipeline, positioning the collaboration as a potential game-changer in the increasingly competitive Asian cinema market.
Under the deal, Momo Film Co will serve as Map’s Southeast Asian scouting arm, identifying promising regional projects for potential co-production and investment. Both companies will actively pursue international funding and grants to support these ventures.
First out of the gate is “Monna Lisa,” helmed by director Donku Lee, whose 2013 debut “Fatal” scored a slot in the Panorama section at the Berlinale. The partners are co-developing the project with plans to lock casting and pre-production by year’s end before cameras roll in Q1 2026.
