www.indiewire.com/2017/05/the-orchard-kings-lionsgate-dragged-across-concrete-oscilloscope-bobbi-jene-1201828832/Oscilloscope Laboratories has acquired U.S. rights to Elvira Lind’s award-winning documentary, “Bobbi Jene.” The film follows American dancer Bobbi Jene, who decided to leave behind her prominent position at the world-famous Batsheva Dance Company after a decade of stardom in Israel to return to the U.S. and create her own boundary breaking performances. “Bobbi Jene” premiered at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival, where it won awards for Best Documentary Feature, Best Cinematography in a Documentary Feature and Best Editing in a Documentary Feature. Oscilloscope plans to open the film theatrically later this year. “Elvira has crafted a film that is so much more than the logline would lead you to believe,” Oscilloccope president Dan Berger said in statement. “The closeness and intimacy she achieves easily transcends Bobbi Jene’s personal story beyond that of just a dancer. It’s a human story with universal relatability that I have no doubt will move anyone who sees it.”
