Marike Muselaers, Lumière, Benelux
Marike Muselaers has been working in film and television for 8 years, and within the industry she has always been looking for the perfect balance between creative and commercial values. She developed her sales skills at Fortissimo Films and RTL Netherlands amongst others, but with Lumière she has found the perfect way to “exploit” her passion for storytelling, arthouse films and cinematic TV series.
Marike has been working with Lumière since 2008 when the Amsterdam office and Lumière Home Entertainment were founded. Currently, she is heading the Home Entertainment department, which includes leading the small sales team for DVD and VOD, and is handling major DVD, VOD and TV accounts. Although her personal guilty pleasures remain Asian cinema and freaky horrorfilms, Lumière really got her interest in Scandinavia going, not only in terms of just watching Nordic fiction, but also in travelling up north.
