Marina Rice Bader is set to world premiere her new feature film, Ava�s Impossible Things, at this year�s Outfest Los Angeles LGBT Film Festival. The film will screen at the DGA 1 on Saturday, July 16 at 4:00pm with
Marina and cast in attendance. Tickets go on sale June 13 at www.outfest.org.
In keeping with the "do-it-her-way-ethos� Bader is known for, she will give the film its worldwide release as a rental on Vimeo on July 17th, the day after its Outfest screening. The talented filmmaker is no stranger to this innovative strategy having released her Anatomy of a Love Seen much the same way in 2014. Gravitas Ventures will again join the team to take Ava�s Impossible Things to all other VOD and streaming platforms in the fall.
Fans around the world will be able to rent the film on Vimeo on any Internet-capable device for only $5.00 for a 48-hour rental period. Subtitled versions for a number of foreign languages will also be available including Spanish, Portuguese, French and German.
Ava�s Impossible Things is the first film to receive an investment from Vimeo�s �Share the Screen� female filmmaking fund, which was launched at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival to support emerging female voices in film.
�I love Vimeo�s �Everyone is welcome, come be part of our vibrant community, create your vision and share it with the world� mentality. I�m honored, and can�t wait to share Ava�s journey," says Bader.
The heart-wrenching tale tells the story of Ava and her mother Faye, bonded by many things�unconditional love, a passion for the arts, a belief that magic exists, and an insidious disease that will one day end both their lives.
It�s been three years since Ava moved back into her mother�s house to care for Faye, and as Ava witnesses the slow downward spiral all she can do is keep her mother�s spirits up while locking away the fears of her own future.
Today is a day like any other until rare guests and unexpected events compel Faye to make a shocking announcement, sending Ava into a tailspin. Unable to deal with reality, Ava cries herself to sleep in her mother�s arms and escapes to a dream world filled with old friends and long forgotten desires.
Catch the genre-bending film on Vimeo July 17 after its Outfest 2016 premiere.
