Netflix In Talks For Sundance Documentary ‘The Perfect Neighbor’ – Deadline
By Mike Fleming Jr, Anthony D’Alessandro
Netflix is in talks for the Geeta Gandbhir directed documentary The Perfect Neighbor which won the Documentary Directing Award at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.
The Perfect Neighbor made its world premiere in the U.S. Documentary Competition section.
The film follows a minor disagreement between neighbors in Florida which takes a lethal turn, with police body camera footage and interviews probing the aftermath of the state’s controversial “stand your ground” laws.
The Perfect Neighbor reps the second pick-up for the streamer out of this year’s festival after Train Dreams which they took for high teen millions, as Deadline first told you.
