Venice Days Rehab Drama ‘Immaculate’ Acquired by Syndicado Film Sales (EXCLUSIVE)
The film follows Daria, whose junkie boyfriend ends up in prison, and she is taken by her parents to rehab to quit heroin and become a good daughter again. Inside the clinic, Daria’s unwavering loyalty to her boyfriend makes her exceptional in the eyes of the male junkies and saves her from their sexual pressures. Being desired yet protected by everyone makes Daria feel special for the first time in her teenage life. She relishes her position until a new mysterious patient is committed.
“Reading Monica’s script I felt attracted by the relationship between the continuous chatter and the painfully concrete longing for closeness, to put it in other terms, words are creating a deceiving veil of intricate power and gender dynamics in contrast with their lingering bodies, at times abandoned in a warm and all accepting togetherness,” says Chiper-Lillemark in his director’s statement.
Syndicado’s slate also includes Salomé Jashi’s Sundance and Berlin selection “Taming the Garden” and Venice Atienza’s Berlin, Doc Edge and Visions du Reel title “Last Days at Sea.”
