Perceval Pictures and Quiver Distribution announced today that they will be partnering on the U.S. release of Academy Award® nominee Viggo Mortensen’s (Captain Fantastic, Eastern Promises) directorial debut FALLING. The drama stars Viggo Mortensen, who also penned the script, alongside Academy Award® nominee and Golden Globe® winner Laura Linney (“Ozark,” The Savages), Golden Globe® nominee Lance Henriksen (Aliens, “Millennium”), Terry Chen (“Jessica Jones,” “House of Cards”), Sverrir Gudnason (The Girl in the Spider’s Web, Borg vs. McEnroe) and Hannah Gross (“Mindhunter,” Joker). Following its festival run this year at Sundance, Cannes, Toronto and San Sebastian Film Festivals, FALLING will be released in Theatres, On Digital and On Demand February 5, 2021, in time for 2020 awards consideration.

Henriksen just won the International Film Festival and Awards Macao (IFFAM) Competition award for Best Actor for his performance in FALLING.

FALLING follows John (Mortensen) who lives with his partner, Eric (Chen), and their daughter, Mónica (Gabby Velis), in California, far from the traditional rural life he left behind years ago. John’s father, Willis (Henriksen), a headstrong man from a bygone era, lives alone on the isolated farm where John grew up. Willis is in the early stages of dementia, making running the farm on his own increasingly difficult, so John brings him to stay at his California home so that he and his sister Sarah (Linney) might help him find a place near them to relocate to. Unfortunately, their best intentions ultimately run up against Willis’s adamant refusal to change his way of life in the slightest.
