Iris Indie Global showcases award-winning films and docs at AFM 2024, Nov 5-10, Booth 9-227. Highlights include Renner, Ganymede and award-winning titles
Highlighting this year’s AFM lineup are several highly anticipated films, including Renner, a gripping science fiction thriller directed by Robert Rippberger. Written by Luke Medina, Martin Medina, and David Largman Murray, and starring Marcia Gay Harden, Violett Beane, and NASCAR driver Frankie Muniz, Renner follows a software genius who inadvertently programs his darkly manipulative mother into an AI life coach, leading to unexpected and terrifying consequences.
Joining Renner in the slate is the LGBTQ thriller Ganymede, directed by Colby Holt and Sam Probst. Ganymede tells the story of a small-town wrestling star wrestling with his attraction to a classmate, while being haunted by a grotesque creature that invades his thoughts. The film has already garnered acclaim at Reel Fest and a successful Live Video on Demand (LVOD) launch with Kino Studio.
Other AFM 2024 highlights include:
Tonic – Directed by Derek Presley, featuring Billy Blair, Ed Westwick, Lori Petty, and Jason Coviello, this jazz-noir thriller follows Sebastian Poe, a pianist entangled in crime, as he navigates the dark streets of Deep Ellum in a race against time.
The Black Guelph – Director John Connors brings this powerful Dublin drama to life with performances by Graham Earley and Paul Roe, exploring forgiveness and redemption in the face of familial trauma.
The Big Dog – A suspense-filled story by director Dane McCusker about a stockbroker’s secret life with a dominatrix, leading him to a high-stakes day of reckoning.
You & I – Directed by Summer Shelton, this reflective romantic drama stars Clayne Crawford and Shelton herself, delving into a nostalgic weekend encounter between former flames.
Midnight Taxi – Co-directed by Bertie Speirs and Samantha Speirs, this thriller follows Eddie Carter, a sleepwalking cab driver embroiled in a murder mystery within London’s seedy underbelly.
Sleep No More (Director’s Cut) – Antonia Bogdanovich’s neo-noir crime thriller set in Los Angeles, featuring Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Rebecca Romijn, re-released to better reflect Bogdanovich’s creative vision.

Kino Studio’s innovative model will allow global audiences to engage with these titles through interactive online screenings that enhance social media engagement and expand the films’ digital reach.
Mark Goldberg, CEO and fellow co-founder Joshua Russell, COO/Head of Production, will also be attending AFM. “We are thrilled to be part of our first AFM following our successful MIPCOM debut,” said Milena Rimassa, President of Distribution. “This marks a new chapter for Iris Indie as we bring a new slate of projects in development with high-profile concepts, cast, and production teams.
