Memento International Boards Luca Guadagnino-Produced War Comedy ‘Atropia’ Starring Alia Shawkat, Callum Turner (EXCLUSIVE)
Memento International has boarded "Atropia," the directorial feature of “Uncut Gems” actor Hailey Gates, produced by 'Queer' director Luca Guadagnino.
Executive producers include director Hailey Gates and actress Alia Shawkat, along with David Siegel, Scott McGehee and Mike Spreter for Big Creek Projects and KC Wallace for Mary of Exeter. “When she meets Abu Dice, an experienced soldier playing the role of an insurgent, their romance quickly threatens their respective ambitions and questions their allegiance to the military and Atropia’s purpose. Memento International described “Atropia” as a “smart, topical satire set in 2006 that resonates deeply today.” The company is pitching the movie as an “exuberant, audience-engaging film whose screwball comedy and romance underscore a profound commentary on war and society.”
