Trailer For The Wonderful Feel-Good Film TOKYO COWBOY, Which We Helped Produce — GeekTyrant

Jul 6, 2024


Purdie Distribution has released the trailer for a wonderful new indie drama titled Tokyo Cowboy. Full disclosure, the owners of GeekTyrant including myself Joey Paur, Free Reyes, and Justin Troung are executive producers on the film, and we are very proud it!The film premiered last year at the 2023 Tallgrass Film Festival, where it won Best Narrative Feature and the Audience Award. It also won Best Feature Drama as Sedona International Film Festival, Best Narrative Feature at San Luis Obispo International Film Festival, and Best Feature Film at the Zions Indie Film Festival.The film currently has a 100% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes after a long run making the rounds at several film festivals. The movie follows a Japanese businessman who embarks on an unwitting journey of self-discovery when he takes a company trip from Tokyo to a Montana cattle ranch.“Now unsettled and off the grid in an alien culture, Hideki recalibrates his values and his life goals. Director Marc Marriott and cinematographer Oscar Ignacio Jiménez create a Big Sky setting that could reset any of us in need of self-discovery.” The synopsis reads: “Brash Tokyo businessman Hideki (Arata Iura) arrives in Montana – known as Big Sky Country – having convinced his bosses back in Japan he can turn a profitless US cattle ranch into a premiere-performing beef asset. “Yet when his Hardee’s-burger-loving Japanese Wagyu-beef expert fails him, Hideki is suddenly poised to misfire magnificently unless he identifies a missing element that’s key to the transformation… himself.”The film was directed by Marc Marriott making his feature directorial debut and it was produced by Brigham Taylor (The Jungle Book, Tomorrowland, Tron: Legacy).The film stars Arata Iura as Hideki, with Ayako Fujitani, Goya Robles, Robin Weigert, and Jun Kunimura. Purdie Distribution will release Tokyo Cowboy in select US theaters and on VOD on August 30th, 2024. This is a classic fish-out-of-water story that audiences will enjoy! We hope that you watch it!
