The First Fallen (in theaters - February 10, 2023; digital - February 21)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Rodrigo de Oliveira

Starring: Johnny Massaro, Renata Carvalho, Victor Camilo

Synopsis:


"After strong festival play in some of the prestigious film festivals around the globe, writer/director Rodrigo de Oliveira’s powerful LGBTQ drama about the start of the AIDS epidemic in 80s Brazil releases this February in theaters and On Demand.

At the turn of 1983 in a small Brazilian town, a group of LGBTQIA+ men and women celebrate the New Year with no idea of the approaching. The biologist Suzano knows something terrible is disrupting his body. Uncertain of his future and desperate at the lack of information, Suzano reaches out to transsexual artist Rose and videomaker Humberto, both equally ill. Together they’ll try to survive the first wave of the AIDS epidemic.

Says de Oliveira, “The first time I understood the word “gay” could describe me, the word “plague” was already intrinsically attached to it. The people I wanted to be as a kid were dying on TV, and I was told that for every pop idol in the spotlight there were hundreds of thousands in the darkness, invisible. Those were my elders, and yet I was denied their humanity.

And so, AIDS is not only a subject to explore, but the very foundation of my identity, of the identity of every LGBTQIA+ person, as tragic as it is transformative. To film those first bodies, to listen to those first voices, to rally behind those first radicals, it’s to reject that invisibility. The First Fallen is the loving imagination of lineage, the invention of my family tree. A film about the dream of being yourself fully, whatever weight the world puts on your shoulders; about the importance of community and the support from our chosen family. The stories never told deserve a place at the forefront. These characters created the possibility of me, not the other way around.”"







Ambush (February 24, 2023 - in theaters, on VOD and digital)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Mark Burman

Starring: Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Connor Paolo, Aaron Eckhart

Synopsis:


"Aaron Eckhart (The Dark Knight) and Jonathan Rhys Meyers (Vikings) star in this intense, gritty and action-packed Vietnam War epic. When a small outpost is ambushed, a US Army squad must take the battle below ground on a high-stakes mission in a new type of warfare the likes of which they have never seen."






Free to a Bad Home (February 17, 2023 - digital)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Kameron Hale, Scott Hale

Starring: Roni Locke, Olivia Dennis, Miranda Nieman, Hayley Sunshine, Tyler McGraw, Katelyn Nevin, Jake C. Young, Benjamin Paul Rigney

Synopsis:


"From the Hale Brothers, and in the tradition of Creepshow and V/H/S, a new horror anthology about the various forms of evil that lurk in the shadows.

The lives of three strangers - a widow, a thief, and an addict - are terrorized by cursed objects and those that spread them in FREE TO A BAD HOME starring Miranda Nieman, Jake C. Young, Olivia Dennis, Hayley Sunshine, and Roni Locke.

Says directors Scott and Kameron Hale, “Ever since watching classics horror movies, such as Night of the Living Dead and Halloween, at far too young of an age, we have always had an unshakeable love and obsession with film, but especially Horror. In our opinion, it is the most flexible, creative, and honest subgenre, and it affords those who embrace it an opportunity to tell stories that tap into every aspect of the human experience.      

               We have always wanted to write, produce, and direct films. Now, we are fortunate enough to be in a place in our lives to make that a possibility. Our feature film, Entropy, was our first foray into filmmaking, and it was shortly after wrapping production that Kameron began thinking about our next project – Free to a Bad Home. What began as a short film about grief and possession quickly became a smaller whole of a larger narrative about cursed objects passed down through the generations, to be used as gateways for cruel spirits who revel in suffering. Telling the story in an anthology format just made sense, and it gave us an opportunity to explore how to stretch the format while also staying true to it. Regardless of budget and time, it is always our goal to challenge ourselves, and we loved the idea creating an anthology with a singular vision that used seemingly disconnected-but-actually-strongly-linked stories that subtly form what amounts to an origin story for our villainess.

               Free to a Bad Home wasn’t the next feature we had planned – that one awaits a larger budget – but it was, in retrospect, the next logical step in our career. With our skills refined, our cast expanded, and our ambitions greater than ever, Free to a Bad Home, like the cursed objects in the film, found us and changed us, and now we’re ready to unleash it onto an unsuspecting world.”"
