Wild Hunt Trailer Video:
Two Quebec filmmakers came out on top at the Slamdance festival, which saluted Alexandre Franchi's thriller The Wild Hunt and Charles-Olivier Michaud's war drama Snow and Ashes at the close of the Utah fete on Thursday.

Franchi's Wild Hunt -- which has already collected accolades including a mention in Canada's Top Ten for 2009 and a Canadian first feature film prize at TIFF -- nabbed Slamdance's audience trophy for best narrative film.

Wild Hunt follows a young man who crashes a medieval re-enactment game to win his girlfriend back from a charismatic suitor, and stars Mark A. Krupa (The Last Templar) and Ricky Mabe (The Trotsky).

Franchi says Sundance programmers and jury members told him they were "overwhelmed" by the public's reaction to the film. "We hope that this will land us a good U.S. distribution deal," he adds.
