LD Entertainment Partners With Variance Films On Theatrical Release Of Luke Gilford’s SXSW-Premiering Queer Rancher Pic ‘National Anthem’


Queer ranching pic 'National Anthem' has set release plans with partners Variance Films and LD Entertainment.

Immersed in the world of a rural queer ranching community, and set against the exuberant, real-life International Gay Rodeo Association, National Anthem is billed as a celebration of first love and chosen family. Independent studio LD Entertainment has been a key player in producing and distributing such heralded films as Judy, Jackie, Ben Is Back, The Zookeeper’s Wife, Risen, The Grey, Killer Joe, Albert Nobbs, the Academy Award nominated Biutiful, and the award-winning doc Biggest Little Farm. Previously, it’s also found successes with a re-release of S.S. Rajamouli’s Telugu-language epic RRR, which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song last year, as well as Ryûsuke Hamaguchi’s Drive My Car(for Sideshow/Janus Films) and Ira Sachs’ Passages(for MUBI), among other titles.
