Courtesy of TIFF Sony Pictures Classics has acquired rights to Niki Byrne’s “The Julia Set,” starring Chase Infiniti, following the film’s world premiere at TIFF.
The film, written and directed by Byrne, was one of the festival’s breakouts, thanks in large part to Infiniti’s commanding performance. The “One Battle After Another” and “The Testaments” star earned rave reviews — including in Variety — for her turn as Julia Fischer, a math prodigy navigating being the youngest, most gifted student in her elite prep course, while falling into an abusive romantic relationship with her teaching assistant, Pascal (Christopher Briney). Amid those pressures, the film’s synopsis explains, “Julia must find the strength to follow the path she was destined to take.”
