Overture Films make room for ‘The Visitor’

New player on the block Overture Films made their big purchase at TIFF putting their faith behind a so far good critically-buzzed drama by the same director who gave us The Station Agent.

Written by McCarthy, The Visitor revolves around a widower who lives a mundane existence as a college economics professor. His world is turned upside down when he meets two illegal immigrants, one of whom he befriends and tries to help when discovered by U.S. immigration authorities.
