Exclusive: Vertical Entertainment has acquired North American rights to medical thriller The God Committee, ahead of its premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival, with plans to release the film theatrically and on demand on July 2nd.
Written and directed by Austin Stark (The Runner), The God Committee examines today’s organ transplant system, through the eyes of those involved and affected by it, moving between two timelines. In the first, a transplant committee has one hour to decide which of three patients deserves a life-saving heart. The other, set seven years later, explores the impact of that fateful decision. Golden Globe and Emmy winner Kelsey Grammer (Frasier) stars in the feature, opposite Julia Stiles, Colman Domingo, Janeane Garofalo and Dan Hedaya (The Usual Suspects).
“We are thrilled to be working with Vertical,” Stark said in a statement. “Our film shines a light on the transplant system,...

Kelsey Grammer and Julia Stiles are set to star in “The God Committee,” a medical thriller from writer and director Austin Stark. Paper Street Films, Phiphen Pictures and Crystal City Entertainment announced the casting on Thursday.
Colman Domingo, Janeane Garofalo and Dan Hedaya will co-star in “The God Committee,” which is currently shooting in New York.
“The God Committee” is a look into the U.S. organ transplant system, seen through the eyes of those personally involved and affected by it. The story moves between two timelines: In one, a donor heart is being flown to a NYC hospital, and a transplant committee has an hour to decide which patient deserves the life-saving organ. The other, which takes place six years later, explores the impact of that one decision.
