We are happy to announce that Camilla Nielsson’s Sundance winning documentary film President will be distributed in North America by Greenwich Entertainment, aiming for a US theatrical release in December 2021.
Deadline.com has interviewed director Camilla Nielsson and she says the following about the release: “A film like President is only possible when many, many people in front of and behind the camera agree to collaborate on all levels. […] I think you can see clearly from the film, the intense and dangerous challenges that were presented in a situation where transparency and accountability are suppressed by those seeking to maintain an unjust status quo. The Zimbabwean crew members cannot be named in the credits for security concerns right now, but it is our shared goal to situate the people in the film in an ethical relationship with the people viewing it. We’re really excited that Greenwich will be bringing the film to theatres in the US, bringing people together to share and reflect on the lived experience of others working so hard for the establishment of strong democratic institutions, while some Americans are currently attempting to break their own.”
