David Zellner

From Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter to Damsel, the Zellner brothers have been delivering some of the most inspired American indies in recent years. Kid-Thing is a deadpan delight which casts light on the darker corners of childhood that most coming-of-age tales shy away from.

We’re pleased to begin a new series of gems of contemporary American indie cinema, courtesy of Brooklyn-based label Factory 25! Kicking it off is Cam Archer’s Shit Year, a show-biz head trip with one foot in Warhol, one in Fellini, and a raw, unexpected lead performance by Ellen Barkin.
