Cinedigm will premiere the movie at Laemmle Theatres North Hollywood on April 20 ahead of its Earth Day, April 22 theatrical opening and digital release this Summer. Pic previously played festivals include Fantasia and Grimmfest. The deal was negotiated by Brandon Hill, Manager of Acquisitions, on behalf of Cinedigm, with Priscilla Smith, Founder of The Coven.
“It’s not just about fracking but how, in general, we take the goods of nature for granted,” said Swies. “Greed and ignorance have already destroyed our water supplies with chemicals, biological or radiological waste.” Lyons added, “American farmers have been squeezed harder by our trade wars, and now the pandemic, with crops left rotting in the field when already, over the past decade, their income was down and suicides up. No one is safe from the wrecking ball that is corporate greed. When we destroy our precious water resources, it will eventually affect us in our food and drink. That’s the point that I hope comes across in the film.
