Following its world premiere at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival, the official Rotting in the Sun trailer for Sebastián Silva’s dark meta comedy has been released.
The trailer highlights the chaotic meeting between Silva and actor Jordan Firstman. Both portray versions of themselves.
MUBI has acquired the North American distribution rights to the movie, which will have its limited theatrical release on September 8.
It will then be available for streaming on September 15 on MUBI in US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Latin America, Benelux, Italy and Spain.
Described as a darkly funny and refreshingly audacious meta-comedy, Rotting in the Sun is written and directed by Silva. The Chilean filmmaker gained recognition for his acclaimed directorial works in The Maid and Crystal Fairy & The Magical Cactus. Aside from Silva and Firstman, the upcoming film also stars Robert Keller, Catalina Saavedra, Gerard Sierra, Vitter Leija and Juan Andrés Silva.
The film is executive produced by Adam Donald, Ant Gentile, Adrián Geyer, Alex Hughes, Eugene Kotlyarenko, Riccardo Maddalosso, Patricia Sanchez, and Gabriel Stavenhagen, with Jacob Wasserman serving as producer.
