MUMBAI: As the American Film Market prepares to get underway this week with Neal Sundstrom‘s South African football comedy Finding Lenny, Cinemavault has seen to it that it that its slate was bolstered.
The David versus Goliath tale was partly funded by India‘s Vistaar Religare Film Fund and produced by Moviworld, whose Tsotsiwon the best foreign language Oscar in 2006.
South African stand-up comic Barry Hilton stars in the English-language feature about a man with family troubles who coaches a rural team and takes on the might of an evil corporation.
Said Cinemavault‘s senior vice-president of international distribution Caroline Stern, "It‘s the perfect primer for the tide of soccer fever already sweeping across the world prior to the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa."
