Directed by Chris Cottam (A Christmas Number One), the film made its world premiere at last year’s Austin Film Festival and follows two distant cousins who’ve never met – one in New York, the other in the smallest town in Ireland – who come together to finally put an end to a generations-long family feud… Things don’t end well.
Reiser co-wrote the script with Wally Marzano-Lesnevich and produced with Max Brady and Cottam.
Reiser said in a statement to Deadline, "This is the film I've wanted to make for years, and I'm so proud of how it turned out. And to bring it out into the world, I couldn't ask to be in more capable hands than the most excellent team at Quiver."
