MIPCOM Spotlight: FilmRise

Chloë Grace Moretz stars in the movie The Miseducation of Cameron Post as a young woman sent to a gay conversion therapy center after getting caught with another girl in the backseat of a car on prom night, and FilmRise is offering up the title.

The FilmRise catalog also features Life in the Doghouse and Mountain Rest. “Due to the universal issues that lie within these three full-length feature films, I have no doubt that all audiences will relate to them,” says Danny Fisher, the company’s CEO. “The Miseducation of Cameron Post and Life in the Doghouse had overwhelmingly positive critical response when released theatrically in the U.S., and we expect Mountain Rest to continue its positive film festival reviews. A large fan base has already been established for all three films, which shows that these independents are extremely marketable.”

Fisher adds, “Our plans at the market include licensing global digital rights for high-quality film and TV libraries.”
