IFC Films has picked up Ken Loach’s “Looking for Eric” and the controversial Lars Von Trier’s “Antichrist” from this year’s Cannes Film Festival for distribution in the U.S. Looking for Eric is a British comedy about a postman who gets life lessons from footballing legend Eric Cantona and “Antichrist” is a controversial erotic thriller. Both films have been receiving lots of attention at the festival.

Last week IFC also picked up the Romanian film “Tales From the Golden Age.” “Tales from the Golden Age” is composed of five short stories of an unconventional personal history of the late communist period in Romania.
