    KARLOVY VARY: Paweł Maślona’s black comedy Panic Attack, which is currently competing in Karlovy Vary’s main competition, was sold by New Europe Film Sales to Greece (Neo), Lithuania (Kino Pavasaris), Iceland (Bio Paradis) and Central and Eastern Europe (HBO Central Europe).

    Further deals, including the UK, are under negotiation. The film also attracts producers looking to remake it for their local markets, according to a press release.
