Although the American independent film company A24 was founded just four and a half years ago, its films have already been nominated 14 times for the " Oscar " awards. A couple of years ago, a New York studio took the risk of investing $ 1.5 million in the creation of the drama Moonlight, which not only earned more than $ 50 million at the worldwide box office, but also managed to win the main film award in the world in the category "Best Film of the Year".According to The Tracking Board , the leadership of A24 has taken on another project that could make a big impression on American academics. The studio acquired the rights to a film based on Pippa Bianco's short " Live films Cinefondation , held as part of the Festival de Cannes . The main character of the 13-minute tape was the schoolgirl Crystal Williams , who learned that someone, without her knowledge, posted on the Web a video from a party at which she was sexually harassed. Despite the fact that the video quickly became an Internet sensation, the girl decided not to hide within four walls, but to go to school and look into the eyes of those who disgraced her on social networks ...  The role of Krystal in the original short is played by American Horror Story star Taissa Farmiga. In the full-length version, the main character of the story will be played by a young actress Rihanna Barreto . Insiders still find it difficult to say whether studio A24 is going to use Bianco to create a full-length version of her tape. Pippa already has work in big movies: last year she wrote the screenplay for the boxing drama Pazman Devil, which failed to recoup its budget, but received warm press reviews.  Eli Bush ("The Grand Budapest Hotel") will be involved in producing a highly social drama about the life of modern teenagers. The Topic of Article: Generation of ”Likes”. |
