Sundance Dealmakers: Know Your Unseen Hands - Submarine Entertainment

Submarine Entertainment, found at the unassuming website submarine.com (home of a mysterious, lo fi, and little-bit-creepy splash page), are quickly becoming a Sundance mainstay, especially after previous successes as sales agents for Super-Size Me (2005) and Control Room (2004). Yet another New York producer’s rep company (though they also much more), twin brothers Josh and Dan Braun and former CAA agent Kevin Iwashina arrive at Sundance 2008 with an intriguing roster of documentaries and feature fiction including The Duplass Brothers comedy Baghead.

How are they doing so far?  Submarine Entertainments’ 2008 Sundance Scorecard:

Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired Cinetic and Submarine Entertainment repped.  Sold to the Weinstein Company.

Kicking It Submarine repped for Worldwide Sales. Sold to ESPN.

The Black List Submarine brokered the deal (along with Arthouse Films). Sold to HBO.

Baghead - Josh Braun brokered a low six-figure deal with Sony Pictures Classics.
