The \u201cimmersive\u201d documentary, which is narrated by Lynch himself, explores the formative years of his life, from \u201chis idyllic upbringing in small-town America to the dark streets of Philadelphia,\u201d according to a statement, and looks \u201cin compelling detail at the events that helped shape one of cinema\u2019s most enigmatic and revered directors.\u201d<\/p>\n

The film, which incorporates Lynch\u2019s art, music and films, will receive its U.K. premiere at the BFI London Film Festival next month, as part of the Documentary Competition section. It is slated for a \u201csubstantial\u201d theatrical release in the U.K. in the spring.<\/p>\n

The deal was negotiated between Edward Fletcher, managing director of Soda Pictures, and Film Constellation founder and CEO Fabien Westerhoff.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe film celebrates the creativity behind the cinema we all love, through the life of one of its most remarkable directors,\u201d Fletcher said. \u201cWe\u2019re hugely excited to be working on this wonderful documentary, and are looking forward to a significant theatrical release next spring. Cinema audiences are in for a treat.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the U.S., Film Constellation has licensed the film to Amazon and Janus Films for a spring theatrical release. In Europe, distribution rights were licensed to NFP in Germany, Potemkin Films in France, Vertigo in Spain, Wanted Cinema in Italy, Angel Films in Scandinavia, Midas Films in Portugal and Fabula in Turkey, while Canada, Australia and Japan are in negotiation, among other territories.<\/p>\n
