    Cutie and the Boxer, 1/11/2013

    CUTIE AND THE BOXER, 1/11/2013 PRESENTS A FILM BY ZACHARY HEINZERLING CUTIE AND THE BOXER US|HD UK THEATRICAL RELEASE: 1 Nov, 2013 RUNNING TIME: 82 minutes Press Contact: Yung Kha T. 0207 831 7252 [email protected] Web: http://cutieandtheboxer.co.uk/ Twitter: @CutieAndBoxer Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/cutieandtheboxer CUTIE AND THE BOXER, 1/11/2013 SHORT SYNOPSIS A reflection on love, sacrifice, and the creative spirit, this candid New York story explores the chaotic 40- year marriage of renowned “boxing” painter Ushio Shinohara and his artist wife, Noriko. As a rowdy, confrontational young artist in Tokyo, Ushio seemed destined for fame, but met with little commercial success after he moved to New York City in 1969, seeking international recognition. When 19-year-old Noriko moved to New York to study art, she fell in love with Ushio—abandoning her education to become the wife and assistant to an unruly, husband. Over the course of their marriage, the roles have shifted. Now 80, Ushio struggles to establish his artistic legacy, while Noriko is at last being recognized for her own art—a series of drawings entitled “Cutie,” depicting her challenging past with Ushio. Spanning four decades, the film is a moving portrait of a couple wrestling with the eternal themes of sacrifice, disappointment and aging, against a background of lives dedicated to art. LONG SYNPOSIS Cutie and the Boxer is an intimate, observational documentary chronicling the unique love story between Ushio and Noriko Shinohara, married Japanese artists living in New York. Bound by years of quiet resentment, disappointments and missed professional opportunities, they are locked in a hard, dependent love.

    The Reluctant Fundamentalist

    Mongrel Media Presents The Reluctant Fundamentalist A film by Mira Nair (128 min., USA, 2012) Language: English and Urdu Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith Star PR 1028 Queen Street West Tel: 416-488-4436 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Fax: 416-488-8438 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html SYNOPSIS 2011, Lahore. At a café a Pakistani man named Changez (Riz Ahmed) tells Bobby (Liev Schreiber), an American journalist, about his experiences in the United States. Roll back ten years, and we find a younger Changez fresh from Princeton, seeking his fortune on Wall Street. The American Dream seems well within his grasp, complete with a smart and gorgeous artist girlfriend, Erica (Kate Hudson). But when the Twin Towers are attacked, a cultural divide slowly begins to crack open between Changez and Erica. Changez’s dream soon begins to slip into nightmare: he is transformed from a well-educated, upwardly mobile businessman to a scapegoat and perceived enemy. Taking us through the culturally rich and beguiling worlds of New York, Lahore and Istanbul, The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a story about conflicting ideologies where perception and suspicion have the power to determine life or death. A MULTI-LAYERED VISION “Looks can be deceiving.” Changez Khan “An Indian director making a film about a Pakistani man. That’s not an easy thing to do,” says novelist and co-screenwriter Mohsin Hamid of The Reluctant Fundamentalist, the new film from award-winning filmmaker Mira Nair, based on Hamid’s acclaimed novel of the same name.

  • A Year Ago, My Welcome Note Flashed

    A Year Ago, My Welcome Note Flashed

    A year ago, my welcome note flashed with excitement for a big KCFF milestone – our 20th edition! We’d booked more films, more guests and more special events than ever before, even adding an extra day to the Fest. Atom Egoyan was coming to Kingston! Ticket sales were through the roof, we had assembled a stellar team and perhaps best of all, the movies were amazing. A week prior to opening night, faint talk of the pandemic circulated – but it seemed like a distant concern, especially for a small community like Kingston. We were keen and confident the show would go on! (This is the part of the movie when the needle scratches *whirrp across the record….) On day two of KCFF (Thursday March 12, I clearly remember) we woke to inboxes full of cancellations, heated words of warning and heightened concern. CTV reported that health officials were suggesting something called “social distancing” which did not gel with festival plans whatsoever. By noon, nearly all our special guests had bailed and the creeping anxiety among staff, volunteers and festival-goers had accelerated. Knowing we’d never make it to closing night alive (metaphorically speaking) an emergency Board meeting was called and we immediately drew up cancellation plans. With over 18 months of preparations, KCFF20 stopped dead in its tracks. By the time Monday rolled around – when we’d normally be tying a nice bow on the Fest – Princess Street resembled a ghost town. To top it all off, Pearl Jam had cancelled their international tour, which meant my colleague Megan’s 40th birthday plans were toast.
  • Operation Avalanche

    Operation Avalanche

    presents OPERATION AVALANCHE A film by Matt Johnson (RT: 93m, USA, 2015) Sales contact: Nate Bolotin, XYZ Films e: [email protected] 310.956.1554 OPERATION AVALANCHE - SHORT SYNOPSIS 1967: the height of the Cold War. The CIA suspects there is a Russian mole inside of NASA, sabotaging the Apollo program. They send two young agents on a mission to go undercover, posing as documentary filmmakers, there to capture NASA's race to the moon. The real mission - use their access and technology to hunt down the leak. But what they discover is far more shocking than soviet spies... Their government may be hiding a secret about Apollo that could define the decade, and the White House will stop at nothing to silence anyone who learns it. 2 OPERATION AVALANCHE – LONG SYNOPSIS MATT JOHNSON and OWEN WILLIAMS are two young CIA agents who were recruited fresh out of Princeton as part of the Bright Recruits program, a program designed to seek out recruits who weren’t the strongest or the most intelligent but who possessed one very important skill that could not be taught, AMBITION. They arrived at the CIA in 1966 and have been toiling away in the AV Department, making modest research projects. When we first meet them in early 1967 they are in the midst of researching whether or not filmmaker Stanley Kubrick is a Soviet spy. But Matt desperately wants field work and a mission worth of their talents and when they hear rumblings about a new mission called OPERATION ZIPPPER, they make a pitch to their supervisor AGENT BOLES to allow them to put their name in the running for the mission.

  • Report to Community Barry Jenkins, Moonlight Expand the Frame

    Report to Community Barry Jenkins, Moonlight Expand the Frame

    Report to Community Barry Jenkins, Moonlight Expand The Frame In 2016, VIFF celebrated its 35th anniversary. Over this time, we evolved from a small community festival to one of the largest and most prestigious in North America, and now boast a permanent state-of-the-art home and exciting year-round programming. Instead of breaking out balloons and cake, we celebrated by taking a step back, looking at the legacy of our growth, and its impact on our community, stakeholders and creators worldwide. We asked ourselves if our identity truly reflected what we’d become. We proudly produce our world-class festival, but we also do much more. And as the landscape of cinematic content creation and consumption rapidly changes, bringing with it fresh opportunities and challenges, we are inspired to explore and continue to evolve at this edge of discovery. While film remains core to our values, VIFF now expands the frame to explore new media, platforms and trends through multi-experiential programming streams that include talks, events, workshops and installations in a unique 365 ‘film+’ model. Audiences can find exactly what they are looking for and discover more all year round. Reflective of an engaged global community with an appetite for discovery, our bold new vision and mission brings audiences and creators together on the horizon where we’re the first to see all that is coming next, be it a good story or an exciting new way to tell it. We believe that discovery is an act to be celebrated. After all, discovery leads to discussion, which leads to connection, which creates an enriched community.
