2011 Sundance Predictions: Jaffe Zinn’s Magic Valley

Date:

#27. Magic Valley – Jaffe Zinn

I’ve mentioned Magic Valley as a possible fall release, but it looks like producer Heather Rae plans to make the trek back to Park City, the lieu where Frozen River took off. Expect Jaffe Zinn’s feature debut to grab a spot in the U.S Dramatic Comp and maybe head to Berlin the month after.

Written by Jaffe Zinn, it’s a beautiful october morning in the small town of Buhl, Idaho.

* Producer: Heather Rae (Frozen River)
