Exclusive: UK distributor Signature has picked up five movies including recent Frank Grillo crime-thriller Body Brokers and noughties Brit comedy Scenes Of A Sexual Nature.
Also new to the slate are Korean crime caper Lucky Grandma, Julie Delpy tear-jerker My Zoe and true-story drama Miss Virginia.
Body Brokers, starring Grillo, Melissa Leo and Michael K Williams, charts the true story of a multi-billion-dollar drug and alcohol treatment scheme where former drug addicts and dealers become millionaires as fly-by-night ‘body brokers’, recruiting other addicts to seek treatment and selling these patients off to facilities at the highest price. Set for release in 2021, the film was picked up from Voltage Pictures.
Miss Virginia stars Orange Is the New Black’s Uzo Aduba as a struggling inner-city mother who sacrifices everything to give her son a good education. Acquired from Moving Picture Institute, the film is due to be released across platforms in October.
