Circus Road Films announced today their acquisition of the feature film “In Stereo,” which they will release in theaters July 3rd. The film will have a same day VOD release. “In Stereo” is the directorial debut of Mel Rodriguez III and features Beau Garrett (“Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce”), Micah Hauptman (“Iron Man”), Aimee Mullins (“Young Ones”) and Mario Cantone (“Sex and the City”) along with newcomers Maggie Geha (“Winter’s Tale”) and Melissa Bolona.
“In Stereo” centers on David (Micah Hauptman) and Brenda (Beau Garrett), who are perfect for each other and everyone knows it… except David and Brenda. After they break-up, their lives spiral out of control. David self-destructs as an artist while dating an immature woman who sleeps with his best friend. Brenda endures a failing acting career, an eviction notice, and a boyfriend who just doesn’t do it for her. And then chance brings Brenda and David back together on the streets of New York … at the worst possible time.
A sharply observed, un-romantic comedy by writer/director Mel Rodriguez III, “In Stereo” is a stylish and striking first feature. With an innovative structure and bold performances, it offers an unflinching look at the complexity of modern relationships. Music is also an integral part of the film, with songs by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, Charles Bradley & Menahan Street Band, and Budos Band.
“Mel Rodriguez is a very talented writer and filmmaker. The film is smart, funny and original and the performances are honest and relatable,” said Circus Road president Glen Reynolds. Director Mel Rodriguez III said “I am excited to be working with Circus Road on my first feature. They really understood the movie and have been very supported.”
“In Stereo” stars Beau Garrett, Micah Hauptman, Aimee Mullins, Mario Cantone, Maggie Geha, and Melissa Bolona. Written and directed by Mel Rodriguez III. Producers are Danny Roth and Damiano Tucci. Cinematography by Bryan Koss and Costume Design by Melissa Vargas with Dan Wilcox serving as Music Supervisor.
“In Stereo” will open July 3rd in the following cities: New York, Los Angeles, Austin, Dallas, Atlanta, New Orleans, San Francisco and Miami. It will also be available via VOD the same day.
