Bindlestiffs won the Audience Award for Best Feature Narrative at this year’s Slamdance Film Festival and it has now become the first movie to be distributed through Kevin Smith’s SModcast Pictures.
The film centers around a group of high school friends who flee to the inner city to live out the plot of Catcher in the Rye.
Smith had this to say regarding the film:
“It’s a ballsy high school comedy that was conceived by real, live high schoolers (who are actually way funnier than the 20-something adults who usually play teens in movies)! This mind-bendingly original and gut-bustingly hysterical first film is so confidently made and one-of-a-kind, I cannot wait to stand on a stage beside the ‘Bindlestiffs’ boys and smell the room after the audience has pissed themselves laughing at their debut film.”
Like Smith’s last film, Red State, Bindlestiffs will tour the country and provide a Q & A after each screening with the filmmakers and Kevin Smith. Check for this one to come out this June.
