Founded in 1988, Zeitgeist has always focused on cultivating what they call the “auteur-driven film,†selecting works that might be overlooked or avoided by other companies. From Todd Haynes’ Sundance award-winner Poison to the theatrical reissue of Jacques Demy’s The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, Zeitgeist swiftly made a name for itself as a company with discriminating—and impeccable—tastes.
Over the years, says Russo, “We’ve maintained our mission by continuing to acquire and release auteur-driven and challenging foreign films and documentaries, which reflect the world we live in today.â€
Next up, Zeitgeist is set to release several exciting new films, including the three-hour acclaimed monastic epic, Into Great Silence by Phillip Groening, as well as Jennifer Baichwal’s multiple award-winning Manufactured Landscapes, which explores the photography of artist Edward Burtynsky.
