“Catching Dust,” a thriller starring Erin Moriarty (“The Boys), has been acquired by Vertical and will arrive in select theaters and be available on demand starting on Aug 23.

The Tribeca Film Festival selection is written and directed by Stuart Gatt and stars Moriarty and Jai Courtney. The film follows Geena as she “finally decides to leave her criminal husband, Clyde, and their isolated Texas hideout when a couple from New York suddenly arrives, in search of respite from the city. Ignoring the risks their presence may bring, Geena convinces Clyde to let them stay, a decision with dangerous consequences,” reads its logline.

“Producers Mark David and Jon Katz cultivated an environment of total freedom and support to allow myself and the crew to fulfill our vision in creating the unique world of ‘Catching Dust,’” Gatt said in a statement. “Watching Erin Moriarty and Jai Courtney, as well as the rest of our brilliant cast, turn up daily with such commitment and dedication to their roles was truly humbling.”

He continued: “We are incredibly excited to bring this film and their transformative performances to audiences and couldn’t have found better partners than Vertical and Fortitude International to achieve that goal.”

This is Gatt’s feature directorial debut. The film was produced by Mark David, Jon Katz, Edward R. Pressman and Gatt.

Vertical’s SVP of Acquisitions, Tony Piantedosi, negotiated the deal on behalf of Vertical; UTA’s Independent Film Group negotiated the deal on behalf of the production. Fortitude International is representing the film for foreign sales.
