“Vagina Dentata,” the new film from Norwegian filmmaker Nataša Urban, whose “The Eclipse” won top honors at CPH:DOX in 2022, has been boarded by Manifest Film.

The Romanian outfit will co-produce “Vagina Dentata,” a genre-bending exploration of motherhood and postnatal depression that will be pitched at this week’s Nordic Co-Production Market in Haugesund.

Produced by Ingvil Giske through Norway’s Medieoperatørene, the project is currently 60% financed, with most of the secured funding coming from the Norwegian Film Institute.
