‘Tatami,’ Co-Directed By Guy Nattiv and Zar Amir, Acquired by XYZ for North America (EXCLUSIVE)
Both English and original language versions of 'Tatami,' the Venice-bowing drama co-directed by Guy Nattiv and Zar Amir Ebrahimi, will be released.
“ Tatami,” the Iranian drama from co-directors Guy Nattiv and Zar Amir, has been picked up by XYZ Films for North America, where both lip-synched English and original language versions will be released later this year. Starring Arienne Mandi, Amir, Jamie Ray Newman and Ash Goldeh, and written by Nattiv — an Oscar winner for his short film “Skin” — and Elham Erfani, “Tatami” is set during the Judo World Championships in Tbilisi, Georgia. The rights deal was negotiated by Maya Amsellem from Westend and Jessica Lacy and Oliver Wheeler from Range on behalf of the filmmakers and James Emanuel Shapiro from XYZ Films.
