Content Film Catches Sebastian Silva's Crystal Fairy Following The Directors Award Accolade At Sundance
Crystal Fairy
|
Content has acquired Crystal Fairy directed by Sebastian Silva, which had its world premiere at Sundance 2013. The director won the Directors Award in the World Dramatic Cinema section.
Content will be starting sales negotiations at EFM and has international rights excluding Chile. IFC Films holds the rights for North America.
The road trip comedy stars Michael Cera (Juno, Superbad), Gaby Hoffman (Sleepless in Seattle, Field of Dreams) and the Silva brothers, Juan, Jose and Agustin.
Producer Juan de Dios Larrain said: "This is a story about friends, and humor is the driver. We had a lot of fun working on it. Now it's time to present Crystal Fairy to the international world, and we are delighted Content has come on board."
The film takes us to Chile where self-centered Jamie (Cera) and his friends set off on a wild road trip to experience the legendary hallucinogenic San Pedro cactus. The earth loving, free spirited Crystal Fairy (Gabby Hoffman) joins the gang against Jamie's wishes, and the hilarious adventure of psychedelic soul searching begins.
Juan de Dios Larrain and Pablo Larrain, the producer of Crystal Fairy, also produced 2013 Oscar nominee 'No. UTA Independent Film Group negotiated the deal on behalf of the filmmakers with Content's Harry White.
