👏 🎉 Huge congratulations to the team behind indie horror Together on their selection for Sundance Film Festival`s prestigious Midnight slot!
We’re honoured that our sound stages played a part in bringing this feature to life.
As producer Mike Cowap said, “Filming at DSM was such a huge factor in our shoot going as smoothly as it did – surrounded by world class facilities, we raised our game to make what we hope is a world class film".
Together stars real-life couple Alison Brie and Dave Franco.
The edge-of-seat synopsis: A move to the countryside already testing the limits of a couple’s relationship, a supernatural encounter begins an extreme transformation of their love, their lives, and their flesh. 😱 😱 😱
Director and Screenwriter: Michael Shanks
Producers: Dave Franco, Alison Brie, Mike Cowap, Andrew Mittman, Erik Feig, Max Silva
