Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson‘s sci-fi comedy Save Yourselves! premiered at Sundance earlier this year and Deadline reports that Bleecker Street has now scooped it up.
The company has taken global distribution, the site reports today, and they’re currently planning a theatrical release for this coming Summer.
“The film follows Jack (John Reynolds) and Su (Sunita Mani), a hip Brooklyn couple, who like many of their friends, find themselves dependent on technology and unable to put down their phones. Fearing their mindless scrolling may impact their connection with each other, they seize the chance to head to an isolated cabin in the woods, vowing to unplug from the outside world for a week. Sheltered from texts and push notifications, they are blissfully unaware when aliens attack the earth.”
“As strange events unfold, the couple must figure out a way back to civilization — or what’s left of it.”
