Millennium Entertainment has acquired the U.S. distribution rights to Swedish director Fredrik Bond (Moby's Bodyrock Auditions) feature film debut The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman (2013), starring Mads Mikkelsen, Shia LaBeouf, John Hurt, Vincent D'Onofrio, Melissa Leo, and Til Schweiger. The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.
Official synopsis (courtesy of the Sundance Film Festival): Obeying the last wish of his deceased mother, young American Charlie travels to Eastern Europe with no plans. He lands in a truly unknown place—wilder, weirder, and more foreign than he could have ever imagined. Committed to spontaneous, explosive, and instinctive acts, Charlie now finds himself pursuing an equally lost soul named Gabi, a mysterious Romanian woman unable to shake her dark, violent past.
