It’s this coming Friday that we official begin to segue from final 2013 calender offerings (we’ve got several Best of Lists coming at you) and into the 2014 theatrical slate. Among the indie offerings being released this weekend, we have the true rags to riches to further complications drama that premiered at the Hamptons Int. Film Festival. Starring Anna Paquin, Drea de Matteo, Stephen Moyer and Cam Gigandet, Free Ride (which got picked up by Phase 4 Films in Cannes) will be released simultaneously on VOD with theatrical releases in NYC and Los Angeles. We’ve got your first look at the theatrical one-sheet featuring a fantasy mug shot of Paquin’s character.
Written and directed by Shana Betz, in search of a better life for her family and desperate to escape her tumultuous relationship, Christina (Anna Paquin) hastily moves to Florida and enters the dangerous world of the high-stakes underground drug scene. She quickly learns that dealing drugs at the height of South Florida’s smuggling heyday has its price. As law enforcement closes in on Christina and her drug operation, she must find a way to salvage the life she has desperately worked to repair before it all comes crashing down.
