In the glittering art deco world of 1920s Montréal, “MEM” makes one alteration to history: a group of scientists have a method of extracting memory, whole and complete and deployed into a host body, called a “MEM.” Dolores Extract #1 however is the first Mem capable of creating her own memories. We are so honored to announce our first international co-production, the breakout debut novel from international award winning and bestselling author Bethany C. Morrow Bethany is on the USA TODAY list of 100 Black novelists you should read, and MEM was a BuzzFeed must read book of the year (ranked #1). Kirkus Reviews writes: “Morrow offers an epiphany for readers of speculative fiction which echoes ideas explored in films like Blade Runner and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.” If you’ll be at the Toronto International Film Festival we would love to meet! The biggest thank you here goes to the brilliant Nesta Cooper, who is making her screenwriting debut adapting this novel, and her partner in crime Pete Van Auker who brought us this gem. With our friend and Canadian partner Jennifer Kawaja and Sphere Media, we plan to shoot next year in Montréal - where the novel is set. Stay tuned for more! In the meantime - buy the book!!!!! https://lnkd.in/gwCfptRm

Every studio and streaming service needs "super streamers" - Asian Americans. A trifecta of research from McKinsey & Company and Gold House, Nielsen and The Asian American Foundation firmly concludes that: (1) AAPIs dramatically overindex on streaming, (2) represent up to $4B of untapped revenues if we were more strongly integrated into storytelling, and (3) 60% of 'non' Asians actually want to see more of US! Great distillation of this research by Hope King at Axios with a little nugget from yours truly ;-) https://lnkd.in/gdfKzswp
