Myriad Pictures starts Cannes talks on 'Bare'

Natalia Leite makes her feature directorial debut on the tale of a bored woman in a rural town who embarks on a risky friendship with a female drifter.

Alexandra Roxo and Natalia Leite produce Bare through Purple Milk with Chad Burris via Indion Entertainment. Giorgio Guglielmino, Dennis Mykytyn, Christopher J Scott and Jasper Zweibel served as executive producers.

“Natalia has a provocative and original voice that is undeniably present in Bare,” said Myriad president and CEO Kirk D’Amico.

“She worked with Dianna Agron and Paz de la Huerta and the rest of the cast to capture performances which draw out an extraordinary range of emotions.”

Director of production and acquisitions Theresa Won brought the project to Myriad, who negotiated rights with US rights holder CAA.
