Kaleidoscope Film Distribution (KFD) has acquired the international sales rights for the Australian-produced time-travelling thriller, "Time Addicts", directed, written and produced by Sam Odlum. The film stars Freya Tingley ("Hemlock Grove"), Charles Grounds ("Crazy Rich Asians") and Elise Jansen ("Predestination").

In desperate debt to their volatile drug dealer, best friends, Denise and Johnny, agree to a sketchy job to pay off their last hit - breaking into a decrepit stash house to steal a bag of mysterious drugs. But whilst getting into the house may be easy, escape proves more troublesome, as the pair find themselves trapped inside with a deranged fiend.

KFD will be attending the European Film Market in February, when "Time Addicts" will privately screen for buyers and marketing materials will be available for review. Kaleidoscope Home Entertainment will release "Time Addicts" in the UK, with the release expected later this year, in accordance with a North American release and a festival launch to be announced.

Spencer Pollard, CEO of Kaleidoscope Film Distribution, says: “We’re very happy to be working with Alex and Tessa once more on 'Time Addicts', which we believe buyers and audiences will find a lot of fun and engaging. Added to our already strong Berlin line up we can’t wait to introduce the film to buyers next month.”

Alexandros Ouzas, of Exile Entertainment added: “We're excited to bring this genre-bending debut feature film by Writer/Director Sam Odlum to audiences around the world. We're equally excited to be working with the Kaleidoscope team once again.”

Sam Odlum says: "Inspired by Phillip K. Dick’s science fiction classics, 'Time Addicts' blends a combination of genres to become its own entity. The film’s tone was extremely important to me and was discussed exhaustively with every creative department. Inspired by modern Korean cinema, Time Addicts walks the line between genres, switching from sci-fi to drama to dark comedy. It is a human story set in extraordinary circumstances.”
