Well Go USA has acquired the North American rights to Lech Majewski’s Valley of the Gods. The company is set to release the surrealist drama starring Josh Hartnett and John Malkovich in theaters and on digital platforms on August 11.
Known for pushing the envelope when it comes to dreamlike visuals and fantasy, Majewski’s Valley of the Gods contrasts opposing social extremes — namely abundance and poverty – through three separate storylines. The story follows a middle-class writer, an eccentric trillionaire and members of a struggling nearby Navajo community.

Things take a turn when modern advancement runs afoul of the...
