Arrow Films announced today that they have acquired rights in the UK, Eire, US and Canada for quirky comedy Incredible By True which had its World Premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival. The UK-based premiere label for cult, art, horror and world cinema is planning a release in Autumn 2022.
From idiosyncratic French writer-director Quentin Dupieux (Rubber, Deerskin), the film sees a husband and wife move into a suburban house of their dreams only to discover that a mysterious secret is hidden in the basement that may change their lives forever. The film stars Alain Chabat (The Science of Sleep, Mood Indigo), Léa Drucker (Custody, The Man of My Life), Benoît Magimel (The Piano Teacher, Thieves) and Anaïs Demoustier (Sweet Evil, Alice and the Mayor). Extremely funny and imaginative, surreal and profound, Incredible But True is an unmissable addition to the prolific Dupieux’s marvellously offbeat oeuvre.
Director of Content Francesco Simeoni at Arrow commented: “We’ve long been fans of Quentin Dupieux’s work and we are thrilled to bring his inventive and hilarious latest new feature to audiences across our territories. We are sure the film will connect well with audiences across a variety of platforms.”
“Arrow is the perfect distributor to bring this insanely original time travelling film to American and British audiences. Their marketing talent and love for cult filmmakers are a great fit with Quentin Dupieux’s universe.” added Gregory Chambet, one of the founders of WTFilms.
Arrow Films will target an autumn release on digital in the UK, US, Canada and Eire and a deluxe collector’s edition Blu-ray in the UK, US, CA and Eire as part of its celebrated Arrow Video brand.
Incredible But True was produced by Mathieu Verhaeghe and Thomas Verhaeghe.
