Nerd to Punk Icon: Edie Arnold's Rebel Rise

Rapt Films has secured worldwide sales rights, excluding North America, for the debut US feature "Edie Arnold Is A Loser." This teen comedy, co-directed by Megan Rico and Kade Atwood, premiered at SXSW earlier this year. The story centers on Edie, a shy student who unexpectedly becomes a punk rock icon at her all-girls Catholic School after starting a band with fellow misfits.

The film garnered critical acclaim, including the Golden Space Needle Award for Best Film at the Seattle International Film Festival. It also screened at various other festivals like Miami, Provincetown, Nantucket, and Dances With Films in Los Angeles. "Edie Arnold Is A Loser" is currently on a theatrical roadshow across the United States, having opened at Salt Lake City's Broadway Theatre earlier this month.

"Edie Arnold Is A Loser" is a production of Infigo Films. Directors Megan Rico and Kade Atwood, who previously contributed to the YouTube sketch comedy show "Studio C," helmed the project. Atwood also produced alongside Bryson Alejandro. Adi Madden Cabrera stars as Edie in her acting debut, supported by an ensemble cast including McKenna Tuckett and Cherish Rodriguez.
