IFC Films has acquired U.S. rights to _Love After Love_, the debut feature from director Russell Harbaugh starring Andie MacDowell and Chris O’Dowd. The pic had its world premiere at the


Tribeca Film festival, where it won a cinematography prize. A release strategy is in the works. Co-written by Harbaugh and Eric Mendelsohn, the drama documents the ways a family including a


college theater professor (MacDowell) and her two sons (O’Dowd and James Adomian) move forward in the wake of the loss of its patriarch. Ill-equipped to attend to their mounting emotional


needs, they find release in alternatively abhorrent and joyful ways. Juliet Rylance and Dree Hemingway co-star. Lucas Joaquin, Lauren Haber and Michael Prall are producers, and Lars Knudsen,


Mendelsohn, Robert Halmi and Jim Reeve are executive producers. The film is a Great Point Media production in Association with Secret Engine and Weedon Media. IFC Films’ Arianna Bocco


negotiated the deal with ICM Partners and Great Point’s Halmi. WATCH ON DEADLINE
