Films We Like has acquired the Canadian rights to HIT THE ROAD from Celluloid Dreams.
HIT THE ROAD is the feature debut of Iranian writer-director Panah Panahi, which had its world premiere at Director’s Fortnight at Cannes 2021.
A chaotic, tender family is on a road trip across a rugged landscape, but to where? In the back seat, Dad has a broken leg, but is it really broken? Mom tries to laugh when she’s not holding back tears. The kid keeps exploding into choreographed car karaoke. All of them are fussing over the sick dog and getting on each others’ nerves.
Only the mysterious older brother is quiet.
