Captivating Intergenerational Documentary Now Available on North American VOD Platforms and DVD Starting April 22, 2025

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, April 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, has just released the poignant and inventive documentary feature FINDING GROOVOPOLIS, which is now available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, starting April 22, 2025.

In the documentary FINDING GROOVOPOLIS filmmaker Wil Kristin seeks fatherly advice through the lens of GROOVOPOLIS, a never-produced comedic screenplay written by his late father. While coming to terms with his dad’s death, Kristin discovered the original script for GROOVOPOLIS, which follows a music programmer who falls overboard at a work party, encounters a group of wild, dancing island inhabitants, and inadvertently records their music before being rescued and spreading the sounds as an antidote to dull and monotonous consumer culture. Elements of GROOVOPOLIS eerily show up in and influence Kristin’s own life, and the unusual collaboration yields an excavation of family, legacy, and navigating adulthood.

Co-written by Wil Kristin and editor Ryland Brooks, FINDING GROOVOPOLIS was directed and produced by Wil Kristin, and features acting performances by J.J. Johnston (‘Philip Tooley’) and Jeffrey Arrington (‘Ainsworth Dropo’).

“Ten years ago, when I read my dad’s original script for the first time, I found it flawed but energizing,” said filmmaker Wil Kristin. “FINDING GROOVOPOLIS is a love letter, a detective mission, and a call to talk more openly about mental health, non-traditional families, and how to make sense of the many strange, funny, and complicated ways we become who we are.”

Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire FINDING GROOVOPOLIS directly with the filmmakers and distribution consultant Liz Manashil.
