Elephant Eye Goes Domestic with The Maid

Date:

They tried out the distribution side of the business with doc films Planet B-Boy and Billy the Kid, and now, Elephant Eye Films are set to theatrically rep their first feature film – which appears to be quite the find according to the slew of film festival awards it has picked up since its preeming at Sundance.
Sebastian Silva‘s La Nana (The Maid) will be released in the fall.

Silva also wrote “Second Child”, which is currently going into pre-production in New York with Lee Daniels as producer. Daniels was also repped by Elephant Eyes for his “Push” film.
Written by Silva and Pedro Peirano, The Maid stars Catalina Saaverdra as a maid trying to hold on to her position after having served a family for 23 years.
