“Trust in Love” has been acquired by Gravitas Ventures for theatrical distribution and video-on-demand release following a successful festival run during which it garnered it 30 awards across 23 festivals.
Directed by Mick Davis (“Modigliani,” “Walden”), the film follows Mickey Ferrara, a record producer with a lackluster career. “His estranged wife wants a divorce, and his son is struggling with his sexuality, but Mickey is a warrior, so he’s about to get in the trenches and ‘Trust In Love’ to keep his family together and maybe make one more good record,” its log line reads.
Jimi Petulla (“The Fall of America and the Western World,” “Reversal”), Sydney Bullock (“Stranger Things,” “Dynasty”), Logan Arditty (“Stay Out,” “Progeny: Camp Pathway”) and Natasha Wilson (“Once Upon a Time,” “Commander in Chief”) all star in the film alongside Eric Roberts, Tim Hazelip, Miljenko Matijevic and Robby Krieger.
Written and produced by Petulla, the indie film won the best international feature film award at the Vancouver International Film Awards and best narrative feature at the Studio City Film Festival. It also won best feature film, best cinematography of feature film, best actor and best supporting actor at the Los Angeles Cinematography Awards and best feature film at the Amsterdam World International Film Festival, among other accolades.
“Trust in Love” will tour theaters in a theatrical roadshow starting Aug. 5 before being released on VOD on Aug. 13.
Davis is repped by Gersh and Source Management + Production; Wilson by Pacific Artists Management and Brave Artists Management; Bullock by Arise Artists Agency, J Pervis Talent Agency and Luber Rolkin Entertainment and Arditty is repped by Eris Talent Agency.
