Accerts Productions Brings Award-Winning Home(sick) and New Global Slate to AFM 2025
Still from Home(sick): A Journey Within, winner of Best Director and Best First Feature at TINFF 2025.
Still from Home(sick): A Journey Within — Felix and Alex share a quiet moment overlooking the mountains, reflecting the film’s themes of belonging and rediscovery.
Accerts Productions presents its AFM 2025 lineup featuring “Home(sick),” “Wake,” “Girl-up Amigo!,” “Fragile,” “The Land Without Shadows,” and more — authentic stories with global voices and bold cinematic vision.
Filmmaker Raúl E. Peyret showcases the award-winning Home(sick) and a bold new slate of international co-productions at the American Film Market 2025.
Headlining the lineup is Home(sick): A Journey Within, Peyret’s award-winning debut feature, recently honored with Best Director (Drama/Thriller) and Best First Feature (International) at the Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival (TINFF) 2025, and an Official Selection of the Seattle Latino Film Festival 2025.
A bilingual romantic drama with touches of comedy in English and Spanish, Home(sick) follows an Argentine expatriate who returns home seeking connection but discovers he no longer belongs to either world—until a chance encounter forces him to confront what it truly means to come home.
Bestefar, a forty-minute documentary in English, Norwegian, and Spanish, offers a moving cross-continental search for identity as a woman unearths a century-old family secret. Screeners are available upon request.
Accerts will also unveil a dynamic mix of features in packaging and pre-production, open for co-production and co-financing:
GIRL-UP AMIGO! – A bilingual action-adventure-comedy in English and Spanish set in Colombia, starring John Billingsley (Star Trek: Enterprise), Tonatzin Mondragón, and Jake C. Young. When their eccentric boss is kidnapped, three office misfits must navigate bureaucratic chaos and criminal absurdity in a wild ransom chase — a Latin-flavored mash-up of The Lost City and We’re the Millers.
WAKE – A raw, emotional family drama directed by Arben Tom Ivanaj, where a fractured family gathers after a brother’s death and discovers that truth can be both devastating and redemptive.
FRAGILE – A tense psychological thriller starring Eric Balfour (Six Feet Under), in which a brilliant economist manipulates a dying coastal town into a false boom — until guilt and ambition implode his world.
THE LAST CHANCE – An adrenaline-driven action thriller set along the U.S.–Mexico border, following a Venezuelan immigrant forced into an underground fight circuit to save his mother’s life.
THE LAND WITHOUT SHADOWS – A feature and companion documentary co-created with Ecuador’s Waorani people, preserving a disappearing language and culture through film.
THE TWELVE REALMS – An ambitious animated epic weaving world mythologies into a journey of transformation and connection.
“Our goal is to tell authentic, globally resonant stories,” said Raúl E. Peyret, founder of Accerts Productions. “AFM is where meaningful partnerships begin — we’re seeking collaborators who believe cinema can cross cultures and spark real connection.”
