Circle Collective formed in June 2019 in order to provide a new avenue for and community around creative distribution as an artist-forward, feature film marketing and distribution consulting agency. In partnership with OCN, Circle Collective will begin to release contemporary indie cinema across a variety of genres and origins onto physical media, maintaining the same artist-forward perspective as in their theatrical campaigns. Vinegar Syndrome’s sister company, OCN Distribution, is thrilled to be representing this diverse and unique home video line!

A surprisingly sexy, darkly funny, emotional rollercoaster... 

In this light-and-dark comedy, June and her Persian-exiled mom Lela take a trip to the romantic Azores islands for a grief anniversary, with contrasting ideas about how to grieve, how to live, and how tiny June's bikini should be. Between happy honeymooners, doomscrolling Woman Life Freedom, and their charming hot-yet-deep surfer tour guide, João, these two women (and we, the audience) surf the waves of life, loss, flirting… an unforgettable ride. 

HONEYJOON is for anyone who lives with loss. For anyone who wants to feel free in their body. For anyone who has tried, and failed, to flirt.
