Whether it be this summer’s Fruitvale Station (formerly Fruitvale) or The Kings of Summer (formerly Toy’s House), it’s not uncommon for a Sundance Film Festival selection to get a revamped title. Such is the case with Emanuel and the Truth About Fishes, which is losing its sea-friendly element after premiering in Park City this year, and instead going by The Truth About Emanuel. Led by Wuthering Heights star Kaya Scodelario and Jessica Biel, a new theatrical trailer has now landed today ahead of an early 2014 release.
Marking the sophomore effort of Francesca Gregorini (who last directed the Rooney Mara-led Tanner Hall), we were fans of the film at Sundance, saying the drama “swims in a bevy of indie film clichés and emerges mostly unscathed, building a quite strange, dynamic narrative about mothers and their daughters.” Also starring Alfred Molina, Frances O’Connor, Jimmi Simpson and Aneurin Barnard, check out the trailer below.
The Truth About Emanuel opens on January 10th, 2014.
