UK distributor Metrodome has snapped up UK rights to Justin Edgar’s teen comedy We Are the Freaks, starring Michael Smiley (Kill List), Jamie Blackley (The Fifth Estate), Sean Teale (Skins), Rosamund Hanson (This is England) and Adam Gillen (Fresh Meat).

Set against the social and political turmoil of 1990, Edgar wrote and directed the surreal and anarchic anti-teen movie about three misfits on a disastrous night out.

Metrodome plans to release later this year.
