#5. Concussion
Who: Having begun her ascension via her work as a commercials director/producer, 2012/2013 has turned out to be fairly kick ass in terms of receiving support. From the guidance of producer Rose Troche (helmer of Go Fish), being chosen by Independent Feature Project’s narrative lab to grabbing grants in the shape of the Adrienne Shelly Director’s Grant and Gothams Award’s Calvin Klein Spotlight on Women Filmmakers Live the Dream Grant.

Where: You can find more info on the facebook page and the official website should start getting into gear shortly.

Producer(s): Eric Bannat, Steve Holmgren, Ryan Zacarias
U.S. Distributor: Rights Available
Cast: Deragh Campbell, Hannah Gross, Kim Taylor, Ned Oldham, Geoff Grace, Nick Petr
The reason why I accurately predicted that Matthew Porterfield would receive a Sundance Film Festival invite for I Used to be Darker, his third feature film, is primarily due to the genius behind his sophomore pic, Putty Hill. Featuring the photography by regular contributor Jeremy Saulnier, this offers fresh faces in front of the camera in a backdrop that Porterfield appears to know like the back of his hand.
Gist: Scripted by Amy Belk and Porterfield, this is about a young woman named Taryn, a Northern Irish runaway, who finds herself pregnant in Ocean City, MD, she seeks refuge with American relatives in Baltimore. But Aunt Kim and her husband,...

Putty Hill, his critically acclaimed Berlin and SXSW selected sophomore feature officially put Matthew Porterfield on the future of indie film map. He began lensing in the summer of 2011 – so this is definitely readied for a big festival showing and we won’t be surprised if Sundance wants to be affiliated with this filmmaker. Most recently included in the half dozen items for Poland’s American Film Fest’s Us in Progress Wrocław, I Used to be Darker features the photography from Porterfield’s dp Jeremy Saulnier (he contributed on Porterfield’s debut film as well (2000′s Hamilton) and the pic will be toplined by newbie actresses Deragh Campbell (pictured above) and Hannah Gross.
