MUMBAI: Andrew Herwitz‘s Film Sales Company has acquired the worldwide distribution rights of Carl Bessai‘s drama Cole. This move further enhances Film Sales Company‘s Toronto slate.
Richard De Klerk and Kandyse McClure star in the coming of age story about a young man from a small town who tries to reconcile personal ambition and forbidden love with the expectations of a traditional upbringing.

"Frankly, I was surprised by how much my entire staff and I responded to the film, given that the team that brought the film to fruition is relatively unknown, until now," Herwitz said.

Rampart Films and Jason James produced and Irene Nelson served as executive producer. Herwitz‘s Toronto slate includes My Dog Tulip and Joan Baez: How Sweet The Sound.
