Brothers Jackie and Julian (Dinklage) are operating as adoption agents in Colombia, securing deals with families willing to give their children up for a presumably better life in America. When the brothers suddenly find themselves with their backs against the wall, Jackie makes a grave mistake that sends them spiraling into a dark mystery at the root of their world’s status quo; a mystery much darker than they might be able to bear.

Josh Mond (JAMES WHITE) will adapt and direct the project for the studio. Matt Reeves and Adam Kassan will Produce for 6th & Idaho, Peter Dinklage and David Ginsberg for Estuary Films, and Ross Richie and Stephen Christy for BOOM! Studios.

Golden Globe and multiple Emmy Award Winner Peter Dinklage will star in the feature film.
