MUMBAI: Canada‘s CCI Entertainment will bring Scathed and Stolen Lives, two reality-based documentaries produced by Odd Squad Productions, to Mipdoc.
Mipdoc takes place in Cannes, France later this week and is the precusor to MipTV.
Available for the first time, Scathed and Stolen Lives offer a look at the devastation caused by auto theft and crystal methamphetamine use, two of the many dangerous temptations faced by today’s youth.
CCI Entertainment EVP of distribution Jill Keenleyside says, “We are so pleased to be able to distribute these informative and edgy documentaries. Both films address extremely topical subjects in society today that should be a part of a global dialogue.” Scathed takes an in-depth look at crystal methamphetamine, the highly addictive narcotic that has created a deadly epidemic among youth. The story is told by teenage users, health-care workers, as well as police providing a harsh dose of reality that will educate and inform. Metro Vancouver provides the backdrop for Stolen Lives, a documentary that delves into the criminal act of stealing cars. Winner of 2007’s Founders Choice Award at the New York Independent Film Festival, the film looks to remind viewers that all too often someone pays the ultimate price. | |
