FOR INMEDIATE RELEASE

New York, NY - Independent filmmaker Diego Marquez, alongside Broken Film, proudly announce the selection of their latest creation, Savages!, at the Hollywood Verge Film Awards.


Savages! explores the adventurous journey of three explorers entangled in a struggle for cultural supremacy within the depths of the South American jungle. The film stars Andres Castillo, Elisabeth Staak, and Miles Messinger.


Director Diego Marquez offers a compelling insight into the essence of Savages! with a powerful statement: “Savages! is an allegory about the destructive nature of progress disguised as a silent adventure. The film delves into the profound dimensions of culture and civilization, highlighting how the medium of film bridges the two concepts. Culture evolves, and civilization progresses, but progress often bears the weight of sudden and violent change. Savages! echoes the repeating cycles of human history, mirroring the ebb and flow of the film's narrative.”


The Hollywood Verge Film Awards, known for honoring outstanding independent films based on their originality and compelling storytelling, has embraced Savages! for its authenticity and bold narrative approach. The festival, true to its mission, values genuine storytelling that defies conventional norms.


"Hollywood Verge Film Awards is a platform that cherishes independent films that dare to voice their unique narratives, departing from the mainstream 'Hollywood' style. We prioritize storytelling and original vision over high production values or big-name actors," stated the festival organizers.


The inclusion of Savages! in the Hollywood Verge Film Awards marks another milestone for Diego Marquez, reinforcing their position as a dynamic and innovative filmmaker whose work captivates audiences worldwide.
