Fledgling Canadian distribution label New Mountain Films has acquired theatrical rights to Swiss-American director Jasmin Gordon’s well-reviewed TIFF 2024 Discovery title The Courageous.
The drama stars Ophélia Kolb (Panda) as the rebellious single mother of three young children determined to overcome the restrictions of their straitened circumstances to give them a life of fun and love.
Billed as a timely gripping portrait of resilience, the film explores the complexities of motherhood, societal expectations, and personal sacrifice.
