King of Knives, directed by Jon Delgado and written by Lindsay Joy with story by Gene Pope, is a film festival darling, having earned critical acclaim from audiences winning the “Best Narrative Feature Film” award at the Williamsburg International Film & Music Competition, the “Best Feature & Lead Actress” at the Milan World Cinema Festival, and seven Platinum awards including “Winner Narrative Feature” at the International Independent Film Awards.

Per Gravitas Ventures: The film tells the story of Frank (Gene Pope) and Kathy (Mel Harris) who are baby boomer parents and Sadie (Emily Bennett) & Kaitlin (Roxi Pope), their millennial daughters. Frank is screaming towards a mid-life crisis. Kathy pretends she’s happy and doesn’t drink that much wine. Sadie is the good child; convinced her first and only boyfriend is the one to marry. Kaitlin is the rebel, the entertainer; the truth-teller who will not filter how she’s feeling. Over three days, with much drama and humor, this crap-happy family careens and skids straight towards a fateful anniversary. On the way, they realize they are more alike than they know.

Gravitas Ventures will release ‘King of Knives’ on VOD and Digital platforms on Tuesday, December 1.
