Film fest favorite "Patrik, Age 1.5" picked up for U.S. distribution

One of the most buzzed-about movies hitting the film festival circuit (both gay and otherwise) has already been picked up for U.S. distribution. here! Films has bought the rights to Swedish hit Patrik, Age 1.5, and it will play in select U.S. cities next summer.

The film is a romantic comedy about a gay couple who anxiously await the stork to bring them a bundle of joy. What they get is ... something else:

"Patrik, Age 1.5 centers on a married gay couple who move into a picture-perfect suburb outside of Stockholm, Sweden with hopes to adopt a baby boy. When they receive notice that they are to expect Patrik, age 1.5, they are elated. However, a little mistake made at the adoption agency turns their world upside down. A decimal point had been misplaced in the agency's records and a 15-year-old homophobe shows up at their front door. Even worse, they discover that he may have a criminal past."

Look for more as the release date nears, and you can see the subtitled trailer after the break!
