IndieWIRE has cool news about Spike Lee joining the VOD game. Here some of it is below:
"Festivals films, including a number of documentaries, have a growing television outlet with the expansion of on demand offerings from the Rainbow’s Sundance Channel and IFC. Spike Lee’s “Passing Strange The Movie” will launch the Sundance Channel’s “Sundance Selects” series, an ongoing video-on-demand program, which kicks off on August 26. The film, which will also have a theatrical release, is based on a the musical develped at the Sundance Theater Lab and Directors Lab that had its world debut at the Sundance Film Festival in January.
The film tells the semi-autobiographical story of a young black man who leaves behind his middle-class church-centered life upbringing in the 1970s for a trip to Europe in search if his “artistic and personal identity. Sex, drugs, politics, and art await him in Amsterdam and a very militant Berlin."
