Tribeca’s 2021 breakout black comedy, All My Friends Hate Me, has been recently struck a deal with Super Ltd. The boutique label has acquired North American rights to Andrew Gaynord’s (Netflix’s The Characters) feature directorial debut. Mason Speta negotiated the deal for Super Ltd with Endeavor Content on behalf of the filmmakers.
The buzzy title made its World Premiere in the International Narrative Competition at the Tribeca Film Festival to critical acclaim. Tom Palmer and Tom Stourton co-wrote the film with Palmer producing and Stourton in the starring role. Charly Clive, Georgina Campbell, Joshua Mcguire, and Antonia Clarke round out the cast.
In All My Friends Hate Me, a college reunion goes awry when Pete suspects his friends may be out to get him… As their weekend getaway grows more and more uncomfortable, should Pete be worried about his safety, or is it all in his head?
Gaynord is known for Netflix’s comedy series The Characters (Tim Robinson, John Early). He previously directed a string of UK TV comedies for Jamie and Natasia Demetriou, Phil Burgers, Ellie White, and Lolly Adefope.
Super Ltd earned its first Academy Award nomination this year with Jasmila Žbanić’s Quo Vadis, Aida?, Bosnia and Herzegovina’s official Oscar entry which also won the Independent Spirit Award for Best International Feature. The label recently released Theo Anthony’s All Light, Everywhere, which won a Special Jury Prize for Non-Fiction Experimentation at Sundance, as well as master director Gianfranco Rosi’s Notturno, Italy’s official submission for this year’s Academy Awards which was shortlisted for Best Documentary Feature. Its slate also includes Tony Stone’s Ted K, David Darg and Price James’ wildly entertaining and poignant documentary You Cannot Kill David Arquette, Jack Bryan’s Active Measures, and Gene Graham’s This One’s for The Ladies. The label’s debut film was Anthony Bourdain’s Wasted! The Story of Food Waste.
Super Ltd’s principals Darcy Heusel and Dan O’Meara were the team behind Honeyland, which was the first non-fiction feature to land Academy Award nominations for Best Documentary and Best International Feature Film in the same year, and Victor Kossakovsky’s Gunda which was also shortlisted for Best Documentary Feature.
