Good Afternoon,
I am contacting you from Soda Pictures regarding out upcoming film
release THE LIGHT THIEF.
The film comes from Kyrgyzstan and has received critical acclaim.
Film trailer: www.mjmtrailers.co.uk/sodalightthief.html
Information and Press Kit for the film are below:
International Prize - 6th Eurasia International Film Festival
Kyrgyzstans Official submission to the 2010 Academy Awards
Featured in the 2010 Cannes Directors Fortnight, the official
screening of the film earned a lengthy standing ovation.
The film's European producers include Cedomir Kolar ("No Man's
Land") and Thanassis Karathanos ("Ajami").
Played with wry humanity by acclaimed writer-director Aktan Arym
Kubat, the trusting Mr. Light strikes a suspect bargain with a rich
developer running for local office, as unemployment threatens the
survival of the community. Stoking a dream to supply wind-generated
electricity to the whole valley, Mr. Light comes up against an
increasingly dark cloud of corruption.
Writer-Director Aktan Arym Kubat gained international attention for
his work after winning the prestigious Golden Leopard for THE SWING.
With his sixth feature he presents a visually ravishing political
allegory about the economic situation in Kyrgyzstan since the
collapse of the USSR, in a film that manages to be warm, witty and
utterly charming.
