US Studio Picks Up Indian-American Brother-Sister Team's Romantic Comedy
"Meet the Patels" premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival where it won the Audience Award and went on to win that same award at Hot Docs and Michael Moore's Traverse City Film Festival where it also won the Best Film Award.
The laugh out loud, true-life romantic comedy centres on the romantically inexperienced, first generation Indian-American Ravi Patel, who's suddenly thrown into the deep end of the dating pool when he reluctantly consents to letting his parents find him a soulmate through traditional cultural means.
The acquisition follows the recent rebrand of Millennium Entertainment as Alchemy, a name that embodies the company's goals of uniting storytellers and their audiences in one dynamic community.
Independent Television Service (ITVS) co-produced and co-financed the project. ITVS is known for supporting films that enrich the cultural landscape with the voices and visions in communities seldom heard through mainstream media.
Additional funding for the film was provided by Impact Partners, Centre for Asian American Media, Tribeca Film Institute, Whitewater Films, Hartley Film Foundation and Chicken & Egg Pictures.
