Exclusive: Gravitas Ventures has acquired North American rights to The Place of No Words, the fantasy-reality drama written and directed by Mark Webber and starring Webber, his real-life wife Teresa Palmer and their son Bodhi Palmer.
The pic, which originally premiered at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival, will now be released in theaters and on demand on October 23.
Continuing Webber’s aesthetic of using elements from his real life to enhance his storytelling, he again has cast his own family members. The pic begins as Bodhi, age 3, asks “Where do we go when we die?” It launches his real family on an adventure that moves between the real world and a fantasy realm filled with mythical creatures to explore how we cope with dying, and the love, laughter and pain we can find within it.
