Lukas Sarnow’s, debut feature “The Last Day of Retrograde” has been acquired by Gravitas Ventures, an Anthem Sports & Entertainment Company. The feature is produced by Chillers LLC and set to stream on TVOD platforms on November 22nd, with preorders now available on Apple TV+. 

Set in Palo Alto and San Francisco over the course of one ridiculous day, Fetsy, a turbulent recent college grad, must cobble together a last second theatrical performance to secure an artist residency. Against an accidental drugging, infidelity, unbridled libidos, and mental breakdowns, her ragtag troupe must work together to put on a show for a zany gallery owner, Christine Taylor Rose.

Helmed by producers Haley Baldwin and Brad Burke, the film features up-and-coming talent from Sarah Silva-James, Samantha Alexa, and Winston Wang. Representation is seen on every level of this production with a majority LGBTQ+ cast and crew. A felt genuine presence of queer joy and chosen community sets this film apart from others in its genre.

This ensemble indie dark comedy is perfect for viewers seeking a quirky story, lovers of California, compatriots of the arts, fans of cringy one-liners, and LGBTQ characters that avoid stereotypical portrayals.
