    PRESS CONTACT: Jim Dobson / Indie PR / 818-753-0700 / [email protected] SHORT SYNOPSIS… FARAH GOES BANG follows a woman in her twenties who tries to lose her virginity while campaigning across America for presidential candidate John Kerry in 2004. SYNOPSIS… FARAH GOES BANG is a road-trip comedy centered on Farah Mahtab, a woman in her twenties who tries to lose her virginity while campaigning across America for presidential candidate John Kerry in 2004. Farah and her friends K.J. and Roopa follow the campaign trail across historic Route 66 on their way to Ohio, the central battleground state of 2004, seizing control of this charged moment in their lives and the life of their country. The film opens on Farah entertaining her friend Waseem at her home after a long night out, nervous and unsure of his interest in her. The next day, Farah meets Roopa and KJ to pack and discuss their plans to canvass door-to-door for Kerry across the country to Ohio. A campaign trainer, Anoop, urges them to concentrate on states where Kerry stands a chance of winning, but Roopa, the architect of the trip, ignores his advice. Their earnest, naive campaigning encounters strong resistance in the Southwest. Texas proves more hostile, and K.J. loses her notorious temper at a racist passerby, and Farah joins in. Farah has a transformative pre-sexual experience with a squirt gun in a convenience store. The girls arrive at the Ohio Kerry/Edwards headquarters, but Farah’s frustration and dissatisfaction causes a meltdown. Much to Roopa's chagrin, K.J.

When she meets a couple whose daughter went missing thirty years ago, she becomes increasingly convinced these strangers are her real parents.

  • The Lunchbox (2013) an NFDC Film Krrish 3 (2013)
    The Lunchbox (2013) an NFDC Film Hindi - 104 min - Drama | Romance "Dabba" (original title) Director: Ritesh Batra The Dabbawalas (lunchbox service) of Mumbai deliver 170’000 lunchboxes every day and according to a Harvard study, only one in a million ever goes astray. This movie is the story of that one mistaken delivery which connects a young housewife Ila to a lonely widower Saajan in the dusk of his life as they build a fantasy world together through notes in the lunchbox…. Both find a dream to hold on to. Ila begins a fantastical affair with a mystery suitor, pouring her heart into cooking meals for him. Saajan looks forward to lunch box deliveries from a mystery woman every day. As the lunchbox goes back and forth, this fantasy becomes so elaborate that it threatens to overwhelm their reality. The film is the story of the life of which we dream versus the life we live in, and of the courage it takes to turn out fantasies into reality. The film was released in February 2014 in the US and the New York Times described it as “A perfect balance of tact and sentimentality”. Cast: Irrfan Khan, Nimrat Kaur, Nawazuddin Siddiqui Krrish 3 (2013) Hindi - 152 min - Action | Sci-Fi Director: Rakesh Roshan Krishna aka Krrish is living a happy married life in India with his wife Priya and scientist dad Rohit, while helping the masses with his superpowers and struggling to keep a steady job.

    Presents WIENER-DOG A film by Todd Solondz (90 min., USA, 2016) Language: English Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith Star PR 1352 Dundas St. West Tel: 416-488-4436 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1Y2 Fax: 416-488-8438 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com @MongrelMedia MongrelMedia SHORT SYNOPSIS From director Todd Solondz, WIENER-DOG is a dark, starkly funny story of a single dog and the many different people she touches over her short lifetime. Man’s best friend starts out teaching a young boy some contorted life lessons before being taken in by a compassionate vet tech named Dawn Wiener. Dawn reunites with someone from her past and sets off on a road trip. After leaving Dawn, Wiener-Dog encounters a floundering film professor, as well as an embittered elderly woman and her needy granddaughter—all longing for something more. Solondz’s perversely dark comedy offers an appallingly honest look at the American experience, brought to life by its all- star cast. DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT I love dogs and would love one of my own, the only problem being that I don't like walking them or feeding them or cleaning them or having to stay home because of them. When I was a child we (my family) went through a lot of them, and they never lasted very long. Todd Solondz ABOUT THE PRODUCTION DINA It’s sad, but true. We’re a dog’s only friend. Writer/Director Todd Solondz’s idiosyncratic comedies force his audiences to explore the difficult truths of the human existence.

Despite being the department chair, director of the Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) and an advisor to several students, he has always made himself available for the slightest of concerns. I am also indented to him for giving me the confidence when I doubted myself the most, and for opening up opportunities and resources at every point during this research. As department chair, his dedication to students and his unwavering stance on ethical practices in academia, are admirable. I am immensely grateful to H.

I am also grateful for the advise and mentorship my other committee members: Jeff Johnson, Peter Collings, and Raffaele Vacca.

  • The Kindergarten Teacher PK
    THE KINDERGARTEN TEACHER Directed by | Sara Colangelo Cast | Maggie Gyllenhaal, Parker Sevak, Michael Chernus and Gael García Bernal Running time | 97 minutes Certificate | TBC Language | English UK release date | 8th February 2019 Press information | Saffeya Shebli | [email protected] | 020 7377 1407 1 SYNOPSIS When a Staten Island kindergarten teacher discovers what may be a gifted five-year-old student in her class, she becomes fascinated with the child - spiralling downward on a dangerous and desperate path in order to nurture his talent. SARA COLANGELO, DIRECTOR STATEMENT THE KINDERGARTEN TEACHER is a psychological thriller about a woman, named Lisa Spinelli, who lives a mundane life in Staten Island and teaches at a local kindergarten. She takes night classes in poetry and is a forgettable student. But she trudges forth, still enjoying the artistic pursuit, with a certain understanding of her mediocrity. One day she discovers that a boy in her class has a prodigious gift for poetry and, from that moment forward, does everything in her power to support and cultivate his talent—going to dangerous extremes to deliver his art to the world. This film is an exciting project for me because it is the story of, predominantly, one woman. It has given me an opportunity to delve deeply into the fascinating psychology of Lisa-- to explore her inner-workings, her good intentions gone awry, and her desire to live a more meaningful life. The story also provides what I think is a nuanced, complex lead role for a 40- something woman— an unfortunate rarity in both Hollywood and the independent film industry.

This production is using equipment and high-speed internet, not available in many Indigenous communities. Even the technologies that are central to much of the art we make leave significant carbon footprints, contributing to changing climates that disproportionately affect Indigenous people worldwide.
