Amcomri Film Partners LP (“AFP”) has announced the creation of a multi-million-dollar film fund. The fund will provide support to independent producers seeking financing and international distribution for their films.
AFP has recently provided funding for the re-imagining of the David Cronenberg film, Rabid, directed by the Soska Sisters and starring Laura Vandervoort as well as for Wonderfilm Media’s Disturbing the Peace starring Guy Pearce.
Larry Howard of Amcomri Film Partners said, “The launch of our own Fund is a natural extension of our fast-growing Entertainment division. Having already partially financed five productions over the past few months, the Fund will enable us to extend our interests in the creation and ownership of content to feed our downstream distribution businesses around the world.”
“I am also pleased to be working alongside Michael Walker and Andy Lyon who will bring a wealth of production and distribution experience to our upcoming investments.”
Amcomri Film Partners LP “AFP” is a subsidiary of the Amcomri Limited Partnership, a low key family office with a number of entertainment industry interests. AFP is the majority shareholder in UK film distributors 101 Films, Metrodome, Tartan Palisades as well as the International Sales Agency, Hollywood Classics International and the live act promotions business, Industry Entertainment.
