MARINA RICE BADER'S
FILM “ANATOMY OF A LOVE SEEN”
GETS WORLDWIDE
RELEASE ONLINE FOLLOWING
THE 2014 OUTFEST
FILM FESTIVAL PREMIERE
Subtitled Versions
For a Number of Foreign Languages To Be Made Available
Including Spanish,
Portuguese, French and German
LOS ANGELES, CA –Writer/director Marina Rice Bader (Executive Producer of Elena Undone, A
Perfect Ending) is releasing her feature length directorial debut Anatomy
of a Love Seen as a $5 digital rental on Vimeo via the film’s
website http://www.anatomyofaloveseen.com
Following the July 18th premiere of the lesbian-themed drama at the 32nd Annual
Outfest Los Angeles LGBT Film Festival, Bader will immediately give the film
its worldwide release as a streaming rental, breaking outside of and bypassing
the traditional Hollywood distribution channels.
In the age of YouTube and viral marketing campaigns, it’s becoming less
uncommon for a feature to eschew theatrical platforms completely for a digital
release; yet it’s quite unusual for a movie to be made available online
immediately after a festival premiere. Typically films would travel the film
festival circuit long enough for media and word-of-mouth to build.
But in keeping with the "do-it-her-way-ethos”, Bader was set on the
idea of exploring alternative distribution options in order to
engage and connect directly with her fans, and get the film out to as many
people as possible.
Her new project Anatomy of a Love Seen is available easily and
affordably for fans to view around the world on any Internet-capable
device. In addition, subtitled versions for a number of foreign languages will
also be made available including Spanish, Portuguese, French and German.
Following in the footsteps of filmmakers the likes of Louis CK and Joss
Whedon who have taken on distribution themselves, Bader isn’t the first
filmmaker to the direct-distribution game; but she is one of the first ever out
filmmakers to offer LGBT audiences around the world and cinephiles alike a
lesbian themed feature film as a low-cost digital release immediately after its
first festival premiere.
As the driving force behind Soul Kiss Films, her independent film
company, Bader’s artistic direction is focused on one goal: to create
evocative, entertaining, and compelling movies by women, for women and about
women. She’s successfully planting the seeds to do just that with Anatomy
of a Love Seen, the forthcoming Raven’s Touch, and a new
film set to shoot in December.
Anatomy of a Love Seen stars Hollywood
newcomers Sharon Hinnendael, Jill Evyn and Constance
Brenneman. This film within a film explores love in all its painful
and messy glory. Six months ago, Zoe and Mal fell for each other
while filming a love scene, which led to an intense, whirlwind affair, followed
by a devastating breakup. Soon after their split, things get complicated when
the two have to meet on set once more to re-shoot that fateful sequence.
Filmed in five days, this improvised movie based on Bader’s story,
characters and outline fulfilled her desire to create a very organic and
visceral experience. Anatomy of a Love Seen was made on
a micro-budget, but that hasn't stopped a huge online buzz. Released
just a few weeks ago, the trailer for the film is making a lot of noise having
already garnered 350,000 views: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWqQregDD_A
