In addition to picking up the US Cinema Favorite Audience Award at the Mill Valley Film Festival at the beginning of October., we're excited to announce that Legion M's MY DEAD FRIEND ZOE has picked up it's third Audience Award -- this time at the Woodstock Film Festival. It also won the Grand Jury award. If you aren't familiar with the project, here's a little background.

Few projects capture the mission and purpose of Legion M as powerfully as MY DEAD FRIEND ZOE. More than a project, MDFZ is a mission…a mission to entertain, to bring meaningful stories to life, to make the world a better place and help people along the way.

It was only a few short years ago that we first met Bronze Star veteran turned writer-director Kyle Hausmann-Stokes. Today we’re proud to have produced a multi-award-winning film that’s captivating audiences and making waves on the festival circuit. MY DEAD FRIEND ZOE is racking up accolades, winning Audience Awards at SXSW, Mill Valley Film Festival, and Woodstock Film Festival, as well as the prestigious Grand Jury Best Feature Narrative award at Woodstock Film Festival. With a 100% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s no surprise the film is generating so much buzz ahead of its February 28th theatrical release.

At its core, MY DEAD FRIEND ZOE is a dark comedy-drama that follows Merit, a U.S. Army veteran at odds with her family due to the presence of her dead best friend, Zoe. As her estranged grandfather needs help, Merit navigates the complexities of grief, friendship, and family dynamics. The stellar cast includes Sonequa Martin-Green, Natalie Morales, Ed Harris, Morgan Freeman, Gloria Reuben, and Utkarsh Ambudkar.
