London-based sales company Independent has picked up worldwide rights to documentary In Search Of Diego.
The feature documentary, currently in post-production, follows five young UK freestyle footballers who travel the world to try to meet their hero Diego Maradona.
Brothers Benjamin and Gabe Turner directed, while Leon Pearlman and Ben Winston of Fulwell 73 produced with Rebecca Green of Green Wolf Films. Gary Sinyor is serving as executive producer.
'We are thrilled to be representing In Search Of Diego,' said Sarah Goodwin and Andrew Orr of Independent. 'The film has all the qualities you look for in the best of independent cinema. It draws the audience into the lives and characters of these young men who are following their life long dream; a funny, heart warming and inspiring adventure.'
Independent, formerly known as Independent Film Sales, also has Berlinale Competitor Hallam Foe on its slate as well as Marc Munden's Rotterdam prize-winning The Mark Of Cain and Paul Andrew Williams' thriller London To Brighton.
Independent's sister production company (formerly known as Artists Independent Pictures) has projects in the works including Nicolas Roeg's adaptation of Martin Amis' Night Train, Richard Jobson's action film The Ballad Of Jo Lim, and Bernard Rose's Mr. Nice.
