New York City-based sales company Cargo Film & Releasing has picked up worldwide sales rights to “Gabi, Between Ages 8 and 13,” which plays in the Competition for Youth Documentary section at documentary film festival IDFA. The agency has also acquired “Smelly Little Town,” featuring Madonna’s hometown, Bay City, Michigan.
