Leading LGBTQ+ distributor Tla Releasing has pounced on U.K. and North American rights to Mexican gay romance drama “Dying Briefly” (“Seré breve al momento de morir”) by Juan Briseño.
“We are so excited to bring this vibrant, exciting film to our audience in the New Year,” said Adam Silver, acquisitions and operating Manager – U.K. at Tla Entertainment Group, who plans a limited theatrical release.
The deal was put together by Rio-based Habanero Film Sales’ CEO Alfredo Calviño, who presents a robust slate at Ventana Sur.
“Dying Briefly” follows Sebastian, who earns a coveted spot in one of the country’s top dance companies, where he falls for Arsenio, a charismatic dancer. Their romance is tested when Mikael, a demanding new choreographer, turns the company into a battlefield. Sebastian rises as the lead, dethroning Luciano, the former star. Fueled by jealousy and betrayal, Arsenio and Luciano conspire in a ruthless plot to crush him.
