Andreas, a recent Out 100 Honoree, is thrilled to once again open a film exclusively at the Clearview in Chelsea. "We had a great opening and an amazing run of my second feature "A Four Letter Word" at the same theater earlier this year," he says. "My hope is that "Between Love & Goodbye" will prove itself to be equally successful."
This absorbing story begins with Marcel (Justin Tensen), a French actor living in New York, marrying his lesbian friend Sarah (Jane Elliott) so he can stay in the US with his boyfriend Kyle (Simon Miller). When Kyle's transgender sister April (Rob Harmon) appears, however, she asserts control over her brother's life without masking her contempt for Marcel.
Referring to "Between Love & Goodbye" as his 'European film,' Swedish-born Andreas is well aware that this 'alternative family drama' is a big departure from his earlier work. A review in Variety of the film states: "Helmer-scripter Casper Andreas, whose previous credits adhered firmly and flamboyantly to the comedic, seems to have hit his stride with the operatic excesses of melodrama".
The DVD of the film is being released by Embrem together with TLA Releasing in the late Spring of 2009. Broadcast rights have been picked up by LOGO Network.
Embrem Entertainment was launched by Andreas in 2004. The company's previous films include his romantic comedies "Slutty Summer" and "A Four Letter Word". Embrem was the theatrical distributor of "Slutty Summer" in 2005, and of "A Four Letter Word" in 2008.
