My son Michael's first feature film MOLLI AND MAX IN THE FUTURE will premiere at SXSW 2023.
Molli and Max in The Future is a sci-fi romantic comedy about a man and woman whose orbits repeatedly collide over the course of 12 years, 4 planets, 3 dimensions and one space-cult.
A grounded romantic comedy set in an absurd world, “Molli and Max” takes the character-driven romance of a movie like "When Harry Met Sally" and combines it with a sci-fi universe found in shows like “Futurama or “Rick and Morty." Through a combination of old-school practical visual effects (hand-built models, miniatures, puppets, stop-motion animation, and rear-projection) and cutting-edge technology (Unreal Engine and LED Volumes) the filmmakers have created a universe like no other. Tentacles! Robots! Glorp!
STARRING: Zosia Mamet (Girls, The Flight Attendant), Aristotle Athari (Saturday Night Live), Arturo Castro (Broad City), Okieriete Onaodowan (Broadway’s Hamilton), Erin Darke (Good Girls Revolt), Grace Kuhlenschmidt (Search Party), Michael Chernus (Severance), Aparna Nancherla (Bojack Horseman), Danny Burstein (Broadway’s Moulin Rouge), Paloma Garcia-Lee (West Side Story) and Matteo Lane (The Advice Special).
The film is the first feature directed by Michael Lukk Litwak whose thesis film won NYU Tisch’s top prizes and Deadline Hollywood voted it the #1 Short Film of 2014. He subsequently directed the entire third season of the series (Snatchers Season 3) for Warner Brothers and has directed numerous commercials and branded content including for Subway, Burger King, Keystone, Macy’s, Verizon, Yahoo, Applebee’s, Squarespace, Spotify and Snapchat. www.Michaellitwak.com.
Produced by Ben J. Murphy (Lucy and Desi), Candice Kuwahara (Milkwater), Mallory Schwartz (Before You Know It), Kate Geller (Casting Director, Shiva Baby), Executive Producers Ted Geogeghan (We Are Still Here) and Jeanne Elfant Festa (The Bee Gees).
