Left at Wall, Gamestop-Inspired Comedy by Ron Placone for Jan. Release

Freestyle Digital Media Acquire Gamestop-Inspired Comedy “Left at Wall” For January Release

Los Angeles, CA (December 23, 2024). Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, proudly announces the acquisition of North American VOD rights to the workplace comedy LEFT AT WALL, which will be available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, starting January 24, 2025.

Inspired by the Robin Hood/Gamestop event that occurred in January of 2021, Left at Wall tells the story of a short sell attempt leading to the ultimate sibling feud. John Saber is a struggling Hollywood writer in constant competition with his Wall Street investor brother, Don. After learning about Don’s latest short sell scheme, John launches an online effort to thwart his brother and fight back against the Wall Street machine.

Written, produced, and directed by comedian Ron Placone, Left at Wall has a cast featuring Ron Placone (‘John Saber’), Gareth Reynolds (‘Don Saber’), Kimberly Hill (‘Sarah’), Sara Kay Godot (‘Tiffany’), Sally Mullins (‘Pornstar’), Eddie Pepitone (‘Harry’), Graham Elwood (‘Dax’), Dave Anthony (‘Trevor’), and Sage Francis (‘Himself’). David K Fried, Carissa Mohr, and Donald W. Mohr served as executive producers.

“When the GameStop thing happened, I got the idea for this film, and I knew I wanted to make it,” said filmmaker Ron Placone. “Our story’s completely fictional but it nods to that event. I couldn’t be happier with everything from the cast to the crew to the soundtrack and everything in-between. I wanted to make a quirky indie comedy that calls out the Wall Street machine and that’s what we did. It’s like if High Fidelity and The Big Short had a baby, and then that baby joins a union.”

Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire Left at Wall directly with Ron Placone and Plac One Productions.
