EXCLUSIVE: Vertical has taken North American distribution rights for James Rowe’s crime thriller Breakwater starring Dermot Mulroney, Darren Mann and Mena Suvari as Film Mode Entertainment kicks off sales at the AFM.
Mann plays a young ex-convict, recently released from a Virginia prison, who embarks on a mission to track down the daughter of a fellow inmate and mentor, played by Mulroney, at his request.
