Thanks to the Proyecto Cine Independiente (PCI) of Argentina’s Association of Film Directors, Fourteen will be available for streaming rental from PCI’s Cine Virtual site beginning on Thursday, May 28, 2020.

As announced in the previous post, Fourteen‘s virtual release in the US begins on Friday, May 15. The release has now expanded to a number of theaters, each of which will make the film available on its web site. And at least one of the theaters is in Canada, which means that May 15 is also the Canada streaming premiere. The Grasshopper Films page for Fourteen should be kept up to date with the list of participating theaters.

Grasshopper Films, Fourteen‘s US distributor, has announced its US virtual release at the BAMcinématek streaming site, starting Fri May 15.

Fourteen will screen at FICCI in Cartagena, Colombia at the following times and venues:

Thu Mar 12, 2020 at 20:45 – Auditorio Palacio de la Proclamación
Fri Mar 13, 2020 at 18:15 – Cine Colombia 4 (Plaza Bocagrande)
Mon Mar 16, 2020 at 12:45 – Cine Colombia 2 (Caribe Plaza)

Dan Sallitt will appear at the first two FICCI screenings.

The Spanish subscription service Filmin will begin offering Fourteen on Mon Mar 9, along with three other films directed by Dan Sallitt: The Unspeakable Act, All the Ships at Sea, and Honeymoon.

 

The Cartagena de Indias International Film Festival will screen Fourteen as part of its 60th edition, to be held in Cartagena, Colombia on March 11-16, 2020. Dates and venues to be announced.

Fourteen has been acquired for US distribution by Grasshopper Films. A theatrical release is planned for spring, followed by digital and home video releases.

Following on its honorable mention in the Uruguay International Film Festival in April 2019 (which included a shout-out to “the colossal actress Tallie Medel”), Fourteen will have its Uruguay theatrical premiere at the Cinemateca Uruguaya in Montevideo on Thu, Jan 16, 2020. Fourteen screens in Sala 1 at 5 and 7 pm nightly through Wed, Jan 22, 2020.

Fourteen will be the closing film in a series of contemporary independent films at the University of Guadalajara’s Casa del Arte in Ciudad Guzmán, Jalisco, about 80 miles from Guadalajara. The screening is on Fri Jan 31, 2020 at 7 pm, and is open to the public.
