their gambling, an action-thriller hybrid,

an independent institution.
If we thought logically, a group of A-

they would have to achieve their
budget via crowd funding and tax
credits. This would not amass to a big

makeup, lighting, setting and casting.
Based on this its only logical that the
film would only be distributed by an
independent institution like; Fierce
productions and Bright pictures.
