Sydney-Winning, SXSW-Bound Gender Politics Thriller ‘Birdeater’ Boarded by Blue Finch Films (EXCLUSIVE)


U.K. sales and distribution outfit Blue Finch Films has boarded worldwide rights to thriller 'Birdeater.'

The debut feature from filmmaking duo Jack Clark and Jim Weir follows a bride-to-be who is invited to join her own fiancé’s bachelor party on a remote property in the Australian outback. The directors met while studying at the Australian Film Television and Radio School and founded independent production company Fax Machine after graduating. Ari Harrison of Umbrella Entertainment said: “‘Birdeater’ is an impressive feature debut that matches the capabilities, tension and energy of its Australian New Wave predecessors such as ‘Wake In Fright’ and ‘Walkabout.’ After a very successful festival release Down Under we are thrilled for its international premiere to be showcased at SXSW Austin in superb company.”
