Akin to Michel Gondry’s low-budgeter We and I, the shot in 2013 campus comedy still doesn’t have a name, doesn’t have a release date, in fact, the project which is described “looser and wonkier” Frances Ha was leaped-frogged by While We’re Young. Mum on details, we’re guessing that this might be Noah Baumbach’s least commercial, more experimental and offbeat offering to date. Sundance is the best time to let the genie out of the bottle.
Gist: Co-written by Baumbach and Greta Gerwig , this is called a mix between “The Great Gatsby” and “Something Wild”. Lola Kirke plays a Barnard undergraduate who aspires to be just like Gerwig’s character.
Production Co./Producers: Rodrigo Teixeira (Frances Ha), Lila Yacoub (Moonrise Kingdom)
Prediction: Premieres category.
U.S. Distributor: Rights Available. TBD (domestic). TBD (international)
