When Olmo gets invited to a party by his beautiful neighbor, he will do whatever he can to meet up with her while embarking on an adventure of mischief, laughs, and chaos.

We shared a love of music and John Hughes movies, and because of this, we had such a lovely shorthand. Our criteria to decide if something worked was simple: if it made us laugh, it stayed. Even more so if it made us cry. With <em>Olmo<\/em>, we wanted to portray the full spectrum of adolescence, including all the beauty and heartbreak that can come with it, as well as highlight the extraordinary circumstances that ordinary families face every day. We\u2019re excited to be working with Greenwich to share the film with U.S. audiences this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tGlobal Constellation is representing international sales on the film. <em>Olmo <\/em>will receive a release in Japan later this year via STARCAT Entertainment and through HBO in Eastern Europe, and Latin America through Amazon Prime.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source deadline.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EXCLUSIVE: Greenwich Entertainment has picked up North American distribution rights to Fernando Eimbcke\u2019s Olmo.\u00a0 Greenwich will release the film in theaters across the U.S. on August 7.
