Focus Features has acquired sci-fi thriller “Hot Spot” from director Agnieszka Smoczyńska for distribution in all territories aside from Poland, Greece, and France.

“I’m honored to work with Focus Features. Their remarkable achievements in film are matched only by their unwavering respect and support for directors,” Smoczyńska said in a statement to media. “With ‘Hot Spot,’ my goal is to create an immersive cinematic experience that captures the essence of today’s world, where advanced technology feels like magic, and love is intricately tied to fear.”

“Hot Spot” is the second English-language to come from Smoczyńska, and it extends her relationship with Focus Features after their collaboration on “Silent Twins.”
