Dogwoof's Jason Becker doc goes to Canada

Dogwoof Global Sales has sold documentary Jason Becker: Not Dead Yet to KinoSmith for Canada.

The doc charts the inspiring story of a musician who was given five years to live but is alive twenty years later.

Robin Smith, president of KinoSmith commented on the deal: “We’re extremely excited to be representing this film in Canada. We fell in love with it at Hot Docs this year and we’re eager to get Jason’s story out to a larger audience across Canada this fall. This will be the fourth film we’ve picked up from Dogwoof in the last six months. Dogwoof is not only a company we greatly respect both artistically and organisationally but is also a company we feel is very much akin to our own sensibilities at KinoSmith. It’s exciting for us to build strong relationships with companies such as theirs and we look forward to strengthening our ties with their organisation in the future.”
