Off Season Sneak Peek
Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, proudly announces the acquisition of VOD rights to the coming-of-age romantic drama OFF SEASON, which will be available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, starting May 16, 2025.
OFF SEASON is a story of regret and redemption in a frozen beach town. A couple, reeling from a recent tragedy, finds their life upended when a strange new family moves in next door. Stephen and Molly Cohen have relocated to the sleepy Long Island beach town of Montauk after losing their son in a freak accident. Across the street, the arrival of the new family unleashes a wave of painful memories they’ve worked to leave in the past. OFF SEASON is a multi-timeline narrative, telling the story of two couples, past and present, whose lives are spiraling off axis. Their crossroads may just reveal the path to redemption for Stephen and Molly.
Written and directed by Skyler Carkhuff, OFF SEASON was produced by Luke Marcus Rosen and Skyler Carkhuff. The featured cast includes Nathanial Ansbach (‘Luke’), Ita Korenzecher (‘Molly’), Maria Parenti (‘Emma’), and Chris Viemeister (‘Stephen’).
“OFF SEASON is my take on the New York love story”, said filmmaker Skyler Carkhuff. “The film reflects on mourning an unfathomable loss and grappling with a relationship on the verge of becoming toxic. All of this is set against the backdrop of Montauk in the darkest winter months, and an empty, late-night New York in the holiday season. OFF SEASON is a love letter to this city and a story of life here unique to any depiction put on screen.”
Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire OFF SEASON directly with the filmmakers and Glen Reynolds of Circus Road Films.
