Blue Fox’s Red Hound Films has acquired North American rights to Mariano Cohn’s (The Distinguished Citizen) Argentinian locked-in-a-car thriller 4×4 as part of a five-film shopping spree, reports Screendaily out of Cannes.
4×4 is the story about a petty thief (Peter Lanzani) who gets trapped inside a high-tech car where nobody can hear his cries for help.
The site says that the film caused a stir as soon as it played as a work in progress at Ventana Sur 2018 and went on to premiere at Fantastic Fest last year.
Red Hound plans to release theatrically in early 2021.
