TFC Theatrical

TFC’s Theatrical Distribution program, serviced via our for-profit entity TFC-Direct, had a milestone year in 2015, releasing 9 films in total.

All four of all fall releases (A SINNER IN MECCA, THE MAN WHO SAVED THE WORLD, TAB HUNTER CONFIDENTIAL and (T)ERROR) were Village Voice Critics Picks and are fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.

2015 End-of-Year lists and the Road to the Oscars®

Five of our 2015 films (SONG FROM THE FOREST, A SINNER IN MECCA, 1971, (T)ERROR and TAB HUNTER CONFIDENTIAL) will vie, alongside a total of 124 other films, for Best Feature Documentary at next year’s Academy Awards™. Two of our Festival Distribution clients, THE ARMOR OF LIGHT and THE HUNTING GROUND, also made the list.

Although a shortlist of 15 films will not be announced until December, Indiewire has placed already tapped THE HUNTING GROUND as one of the "predicted five" films to compete, with (T)ERROR making the top 25.

Indiewire has also listed these two films, as well as TFC Festival Distribution client THE ROYAL ROAD as three of the best reviewed documentaries of 2015.
