Film Movement has acquired domestic rights to Shane Meadows’ feature “Somers Town,” a British drama about a pair of teenagers -- a Polish immigrant and a runaway from Nottingham -- who form a friendship over the course of a summer together in London.
Pic stars Thomas Turgoose and Piotr Jagiello and is due out in July. Kudos include the Tribeca Film Festival’s actor award and best new British feature from the Edinburgh International Film Festival.
