‘King Car’ Trailer Speaks to Cars and Sparks a Revolution [Video]

Published

on

Renata Pinheiro’s sci-fi thriller King Car, which World Premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, North American Premiered at Fantasia Film Festival, and U.S. Premiered at Fantastic Fest, will release the film in theaters and on VOD/Digital on January 7, 2022, via Dark Star Pictures.

In the film…

“A young man’s ability to surreally speak with cars sparks a revolution that could save his community. When his invention inadvertently accelerates the underlying problems, our hero’s quest puts him in a fight for survival with capitalism’s zombies.”

King Car stars Matheus Nachtergaele, Luciano Pedro Jr, Jules Elting, Clara Pinheiro, Adélio Lima, and Ane Oliva.

“America is a land of dreams and nightmares. Quite close to our film that once was a dream, and happened to be born in a political nightmare. This is ‘nuts’ America,” says Pinheiro.

King Car is a truly unique genre-blending vision,” adds Michael Repsch, President of Dark Star Pictures. “Renata Pinheiro has masterfully woven together a cautionary tale of capitalism and corruption, seeped in genre elements – resulting in an unforgettable film that is both thought-provoking and wildly entertaining.”

King Car was produced by Sergio Oliveira and executive produced by Carol Ferreira.
