Award-Winning Indie Film THE REUNION to Make LA Debut At Laemmle Glendale

The producers of the award-winning spiritual thriller film, The Reunion, will present the film's red carpet theatrical premiere in LA. The event will be held at the famous Laemmle Theater in Glendale, CA (located on 207 N. Maryland Ave.) on Friday, March 11th at 10:00 pm. The red carpet portion will start at 8:00 pm, and a Q&A session will immediately follow the screening. Tickets for The Reunion premiere are on sale now on the Laemmle website or at TheReunionFilm.com.

Additional screenings of The Reunion will be at Laemmle Glendale on Saturday, March 12th at 10 pm and Sunday through Friday, March 13th-17th at 1pm.

The film has been released on all major North American VOD platforms. This special LA theatrical premiere is for those who want the full theater experience and the rare chance to meet the filmmakers and cast in person to talk about their creative process.

The Reunion first premiered at the 2021 Julien Dubuque International Film Festival in Iowa and has been presented at three other film festivals in New York. The film won four awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor at the SOHO International Film Festival as well as Best Feature Film and Best Director at the Nyack Film Festival last fall. Nyack Film Festival Director Richard Quinn says that the film "digs deeply into the center of psychological and philosophical tension as a spiritual thriller."

The Reunion is based on the real-life traumatic childhood experience of Dave Rosenberg, the film's writer and producer who also stars as the protagonist, Ricky Reilly. Ricky, a former actor who is seeking spiritual fulfillment, suddenly has his life turned upside down when he runs into his childhood bully. Seeing his old nemesis reawakens memories and emotions that compel Ricky to finally face his greatest fear in order to discover a new definition of manhood.

The film also stars Andrea Modica, Dinh James Doan and Cara Ronzetti, with special appearances by Drama Desk Award-winning actor Austin Pendleton and Actor/Comedian Jim Norton.

Film Threat editor-in-chief Alan Ng gave The Reunion a rave review, saying, "The Reunion is a gorgeous film from start to finish. Great attention is given to every shot in terms of composition, lighting (yes, including lens flares), camera movement, and several effects shots...the cinematography is awe-inspiring."

The Reunion is available now digitally (see locations here), through Gravitas Ventures. The deal was negotiated by Megan Huggins of Gravitas Ventures and DJ Dodd of Future Proof Films on behalf of the filmmakers.
