Dear Collaborators,
We are thrilled to announce the World Premiere at SXSW of Andrew Haigh’s WEEKEND, first screening on opening night in the Emerging Visions section of the festival. TFC is proud to be handling worldwide sales and festival distribution for this beautifully made, emotionally charged new film.
TFC is attending SXSW (where we are doing a Sales & Distribution Mentor Session) and also the Miami International Film Festival. TFC’s third and final blog entry in the “If I Were a Filmmaker Going to Sundance” series, about distributor and aggregator marketing, will post early next week…stand by!
Weekend
ABOUT THE FILM:
On a Friday night after hanging out with his straight mates, Russell heads out to a nightclub, alone and on the pull. Just before closing, he meets Glen. And so begins a weekend—in bars and bedrooms, getting drunk and taking drugs, telling stories and having sex—that will resonate throughout their lives.
