“The Quiet Maid,” an upcoming feature film funded by the sale of NFTs, has secured a global sales deal. 

The film, a social satire formerly titled “Calladita” from the Spanish filmmaker Miguel Faus, sold its world sales rights to the Ibero-American entertainment firm FilmSharks out of Iberseries, the industry conference held this week in Madrid. Deadline first reported the deal. 

“The Quiet Maid” follows a Colombian maid’s lows and highs as she labors for an opulently wealthy and potentially deceptive Spanish family on the coast of Catalonia. It is based off a short film made by Faus, which was picked up by streaming service Max after a stint last year on the festival circuit.

Faus soon after leveraged the 15-minute film to sell NFT passes, in the aim of raising funds for a feature-length version of the same story. The NFTs were a success, raising a $750,000 production budget; they offered holders behind-the-scenes access to the film’s production as well as control, via a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), over a portion of the film’s eventual proceeds.
