Anote's Ark Is His Feature Documentary Debut
ANOTE’S ARK Directed by Matthieu Rytz Sundance Film Festival 2018 | World Documentary Feature Competition https://www.facebook.com/anotesark/ // http://www.eyesteelfilm.com/anotesark SALES CONTACT: Bob Moore - [email protected] PRESS CONTACT: David Magdael and Associates Elisha Gustafson - [email protected] David Magdael - [email protected] 1 LOGLINE Kiribati faces the unstoppable rise of the sea, which will engulf the nation before long. The people of Kiribati will soon be the world’s first “climate change refugees.” Can these people survive as their country disappears? SYNOPSIS What happens when your nation is swallowed by the sea? With the harsh realities of climate change looming, the low-lying Pacific nation Kiribati must find a new solution for the survival of its people. With sweeping cinematography, Anote’s Ark interweaves two poignant stories. Anote Tong, endearing president of the island, races to find options—advocating in international climate negotiations and even investigating building underwater cities. At the same time, warm and sharp-witted Sermery, a young mother of six, tackles every struggle with humour. She must decide whether to leave the only culture she knows on the island and migrate to a new life in New Zealand. Anote’s Ark captures the next evolution in the shifting dynamics of climate change—one where borders, technology, and global treaties are urgent and can change daily life as we know it. This portrait of the Kiribati people exudes strength of character and grace as they confront the inevitable change they are facing head-on. ABOUT THE FILM Anote’s Ark is the first feature film directed by Matthieu Rytz, filmmaker and photographer specialized in visual anthropology. -

Suite 715 Los Angeles, CA 90015 TOKYO IDOLS A FILM BY KYOKO MIYAKE SALES CONTACT: PRESS CONTACT: CINETIC MEDIA DAVID MAGDAEL & ASSOCIATES John Sloss Elisha Gustafson [email protected] [email protected] David Magdael [email protected] 1 LOGLINE Girl bands and their pop music permeate every moment of Japanese life. Following an aspiring pop singer and her fans, Tokyo Idols explores a cultural phenomenon driven by an obsession with young female sexuality, and the growing disconnect between men and women in hyper-modern societies SYNOPSIS “IDOLS” has fast become a phenomenon in Japan as girl bands and pop music permeate Japanese life. TOKYO IDOLS - an eye-opening film gets at the heart of a cultural phenomenon driven by an obsession with young female sexuality and internet popularity. This ever growing phenom is told through Rio, a bona fide "Tokyo Idol" who takes us on her journey toward fame. Now meet her “brothers”: a group of adult middle aged male super fans (ages 35 - 50) who devote their lives to following her—in the virtual world and in real life. Once considered to be on the fringes of society, the "brothers" who gave up salaried jobs to pursue an interest in female idol culture have since blown up and have now become mainstream via the internet, illuminating the growing disconnect between men and women in hypermodern societies. With her provocative look into the Japanese pop music industry and its focus on traditional beauty ideals, filmmaker Kyoko Miyake confronts the nature of gender power dynamics at work. -
