Accerts Productions Brings Award-Winning Home(Sick) And New Global Slate To AFM 2025


(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- Accerts Productions will present its latest slate at the American Film Market (AFM) 2025, where filmmaker Raúl E. Peyret will introduce both completed and in-development titles. Peyret will attend AFM 2025 at the Fairmont Century Plaza, available for meetings November 14–17, with limited availability earlier in the week.

Headlining the lineup is Home(sick): A Journey Within, Peyret's award-winning debut feature, recently honored with Best Director (Drama/Thriller) and Best First Feature (International) at the Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival (TINFF) 2025, and an Official Selection of the Seattle Latino Film Festival 2025.

A bilingual romantic drama with touches of comedy in English and Spanish, Home(sick) follows an Argentine expatriate who returns home seeking connection but discovers he no longer belongs to either world-until a chance encounter forces him to confront what it truly means to come home.

Bestefar, a forty-minute documentary in English, Norwegian, and Spanish, offers a moving cross-continental search for identity as a woman unearths a century-old family secret. Screeners are available upon request.

Accerts will also unveil a dynamic mix of features in packaging and pre-production, open for co-production and co-financing:

GIRL-UP AMIGO! – A bilingual action-adventure-comedy in English and Spanish set in Colombia, starring John Billingsley (Star Trek: Enterprise), Tonatzin Mondragón, and Jake C. Young. When their eccentric boss is kidnapped, three office misfits must navigate bureaucratic chaos and criminal absurdity in a wild ransom chase - a Latin-flavored mash-up of The Lost City and We're the Millers.

WAKE – A raw, emotional family drama directed by Arben Tom Ivanaj, where a fractured family gathers after a brother's death and discovers that truth can be both devastating and redemptive.

FRAGILE – A tense psychological thriller starring Eric Balfour (Six Feet Under), in which a brilliant economist manipulates a dying coastal town into a false boom - until guilt and ambition implode his world.

THE LAST CHANCE – An adrenaline-driven action thriller set along the U.S.–Mexico border, following a Venezuelan immigrant forced into an underground fight circuit to save his mother's life.

THE LAND WITHOUT SHADOWS – A feature and companion documentary co-created with Ecuador's Waorani people, preserving a disappearing language and culture through film.

THE TWELVE REALMS – An ambitious animated epic weaving world mythologies into a journey of transformation and connection.

“Our goal is to tell authentic, globally resonant stories,” said Raúl E. Peyret, founder of Accerts Productions.“AFM is where meaningful partnerships begin - we're seeking collaborators who believe cinema can cross cultures and spark real connection.”
