An intimate family drama readies for the market
“Rosemead,” a character-driven drama starring Lucy Liu, has landed international sales representation with Picture Tree, giving the indie feature a clear route to presales and territory deals. The attachment positions the film to court distributors across Europe and Asia as fall and winter festivals finalize lineups. For Liu, the project expands her dramatic portfolio beyond studio fare, while the sales pact signals confidence in the film’s crossover appeal. Industry watchers say targeted territories, smart festival timing, and a strong press package could turn a modest indie into a high-visibility platform release.

What the deal means for rollout and financing
With a professional sales outfit aboard, the team can refine marketing materials, secure screenings with buyers, and potentially lock limited theatrical windows before streaming. The move also eases financing pressure: presales help close gaps and de-risk distribution. If early festival reactions land, “Rosemead” can ride word-of-mouth into regional releases, aided by Liu’s profile and relatable themes around identity and belonging. Expect further news on cast spotlights, festival dates, and first-look assets as AFM approaches and buyers compare slates in a crowded marketplace.
