- Factory 25 acquired worldwide rights to Daisy Rosato and Nora Kaye’s first feature, “Sinner Supper Club,” at its New York premiere during NewFest.
- Sinner Supper Club follows friends who reunite for Genevieve’s wake after she is priced out of New York City; a heatwave keeps them together until the dead friend appears.
- Sinner Supper Club was shot in six days on an iPhone through improvisation, explicitly paying homage to the mumblegore and Dogme 95 filmmaking movements.
- Sinner Supper Club was developed alongside a manifesto examining filmmaking in the 2020s, with characters representing queer, transgender and gender-nonconforming communities.
- Factory 25 plans a spring 2027 theatrical release for the film, followed by digital and Blu-ray editions.
- Nora Kaye co-wrote the screenplay with Daisy Rosato; both directed and appeared in the film, while Rosato also served as cinematographer.
Why it matters: For Daisy Rosato and Nora Kaye, a spring 2027 theatrical date followed by digital and Blu-ray gives their six-day iPhone-shot first feature three planned release formats. Factory 25 adds the film to a catalog that already includes “Funny Ha Ha,” “Ham on Rye,” and six other named titles.
