Roadside Closes Guantanamo...

...just the movie. Not the illegal detention facility. We are thrilled to report that Roadside Attractions will be bringing the fantastic new Michael Winterbottom/Mat Whitecross film The Road to Guantanamo to the States this June. The film premiered last month at the Berlin International Film Festival, where it won the Silver Bear for Best Director and garnered tons of great reviews and press. Since The Man's publications (i.e. Variety and The Hollywood Reporter) require registration for their sites, here is the people's trade, Indiewire, with a full report on the details of the deal. We are both excited and honored to be able to bring this intense, thought-provoking, sure-to-be-controversial film to US audiences. The Road to Guantanamo will have its US Premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City on May 5 and will then open in finer theatres everywhere the following month.
