“What if a broken heart could be fixed… by removing it?” Cineverse has debuted their own trailer for the streaming release of an indie romantic drama titled With Love and a Major Organ, made by filmmaker Kim Albright. It sort of reminds me of The Lobster. This premiered at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival and it already opened last year on VOD, but we missed it during that run. Now that Cineverse will be streaming it on their platform soon, here’s the two main trailers. In an alternative universe, human hearts are not made of organic matter but are actually complex, tangible objects. Suppressing one’s emotions is not only normal but encouraged. One woman is so distraught over a man she loves, that she decides to rip out her heart for him, only to find that he has run off… Starring Anna Maguire, Hamza Haq, Donna Benedicto, Veena Sood, Arghavan Jenati, Ryan Beil, and Laara Sadiq. This newest trailer is a bit strange because they removed all the dialogue? Not sure why. The original trailer is also added below to hear what they’re saying.
Here’s the final streaming trailer for Kim Albright’s film With Love and a Major Organ, from YouTube:
In a world where everyone’s heart is an object and there’s a strong societal pressure to dampen emotion, lonely Virtual Insurance broker Anabel (Anna Maguire) always follows her heart. At odds with this overly pragmatic society, and after a series of devastating emotional blows, she rips her heart from her chest and gives it to a man she’s fallen for, the strangely unfeeling George (Hamza Haq). Unburdened by her unique yet cumbersome heart, Anabel finds life easier. George, on the other hand, begins to feel everything, to the shock of his overbearing mother, Mona (Veena Sood). Anabel soon realizes she needs to get her heart back if she’s going to survive. With Love and a Major Organ is directed by Canadian-British-Filipina filmmaker Kim Albright, director of the film Bring Out Your Dead and many other shorts previously. The screenplay is written by Julia Lederer. This originally premiered at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival last year, and it also screened at Fantasia. It’s already available to watch on VOD and Blu-ray right now. Cineverse will release With Love and a Major Organ streaming on Cineverse starting July 23rd, 2024 this summer. Look good?
