Film Movement Picks up Cannes Winner SALVO

Film Movement announced today that it has picked up the North American distribution rights to the Italian crime drama Salvo, which won the Grand Prix at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

Directed by Fabio Grassadonia and Antonio Piazza, the film tells the story of a Sicilian hitman, who opts to spare the life of the young blind daughter of one of his victims.  Grassadonia and Piazza’s previous short film, Rita, was also acquired by Film Movement back in 2009.

Salvo will be making a limited theatrical run sometime in the second quarter of 2014.
