Yes LG gets the film from Eink and then builds the display itself. When LG first showed the 9.7 color display at SID in May they had built the color themselves without actually telling EInk how they had done it(clearly a filter but the particulars were kept to themselves). The Eink "Ink" engineers who had created the high contrast B&W panels for SID actually created the waveform for LG just 4-5 days before SID started.
The EInk people were all very impressed with LG's color and so was everyone else that saw it firsthand. The colors were better than what was present in the Eink booth.
