In Person Discussion with Audience!
Bad Shabbos
Daniel Robbins. NYC-based director who hopes to never move West. In his films, he takes exciting concepts and grounds them with authentic performances, surprising humor, and propulsive energy. His breakout film PLEDGE was a hit at Fantasia Film Festival and sold to IFC Midnight as well as a streaming deal with Hulu. He also won “Best Director” at Screamfest. Variety calls it a “lean and mean shocker,” the New York Times proclaims “…the director is willing to move beyond the tease of his setup to deliver a ringing indictment of popularity as the cheese in a deadly mousetrap,” and The Daily Beast calls it “a fleet, ferocious, and razor-sharp affair.” His next two features are CITIZEN WEINER, which premiered at Slamdance and was boarded by Abso Lutely and Village Roadshow; and BAD SHABBOS, which stars an incredible cast and will premiere at Tribeca in June.
Adam Mitchell. New York-based producer who has lived and worked in the entertainment industry in both New York and Los Angeles. His next film BAD SHABBOS, an original comedy starring Kyra Sedgwick, Method Man, David Paymer, Jon Bass, and Milana Vayntrub will premiere at the 2024 Tribeca Festival. His first film as an independent producer THE SCARY OF SIXTY-FIRST from writer/director/star Dasha Nekrasova premiered at the 71st Berlin International Film Festival and was awarded the “Best First Feature” award. The film was acquired and released by Utopia for theatrical distribution and Shudder for streaming, and played at festivals around the world including Sitges and BeyondFest among others. Before becoming an independent producer, Adam worked at various companies within the industry, including Scott Rudin Productions, Red Hour Films, WME, and Makeready.
