The deal comes after Magnolia and Participant teamed for the docu Best Of Enemies about the rivarly between William F Buckley Jr and Gore Vidal. Thru You Princess centers on 38-year-old Samantha Montgomery, who lives alone in one of New Orleans’ toughest neighborhoods. By day, she works as a caregiver for the elderly; at night she transforms into Princess Shaw, belting out soulful originals at open-mic nights and posting homemade a cappella clips on YouTube. One of her followers happens to be an Israeli musician living on a kibbutz outside Tel Aviv, who mashes up YouTube videos from all over the world to create new musical pieces. A 2016 release is planned. Liran Atzmor produced and Stephen Apkon is co-producer. The pic was executive produced by Esther van Messel and Gitte Hansen for First Hand Films.
