The feature documentary Laura\u2019s Choice<\/em>, co-directed by Sam Lara and Cathy Henkel, has been picked up for international distribution by Off The Fence.<\/p>\n

The doc looks at the life and death of Laura Henkel, an eccentric, outspoken, feisty 90-year-old. She decides she wants to end her life on her own terms and asks her daughter Cathy and granddaughter Sam, both filmmakers, to make a film about it.<\/p>\n

The ZDF Enterprises-owned Off the Fence has secured all rights globally, excluding Australia and New Zealand.\u00a0Off The Fence’s productions includes the Oscar- and BAFTA-winning My Octopus Teacher.<\/i><\/p>\n

Following its premiere on the ABC in Australia last month, Laura\u2019s Choice<\/em> has been selected for New Zealand\u2019s Doc Edge International Film Festival.<\/p>\n

Loren Baxter, Off The Fence\u2019s head of acquisitions, said: “Sam and Cathy have created such a special film that will resonate with so many audiences around the world. We’re thrilled to be a part of its journey.”<\/p>\n

Henkel said: \u201cSam and I are absolutely thrilled to have Off The Fence represent Laura\u2019s Choice<\/em> internationally. Their care and passion align perfectly with the film.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
