Asylum Seekers (film)

Asylum Seekers is a 2009 American black comedy film written and directed by Rania Ajami. The film stars Pepper Binkley and Daniel Irizarry as two of the six social outcast protagonists who attempt to commit themselves to an insane asylum to spice up their lives. Bill Dawes, Judith Hawking, Stella Maeve, Camille O'Sullivan, and Lee Wilkof also star in the film.

In its spring 2008 issue, the independent film magazine Filmmaker reported that Asylum Seekers was one of the first independent feature films to be completed on Red Digital Cinema's Red One camera.

The global distribution sales rights for Asylum Seekers were acquired by Shoreline Entertainment. The film was introduced to buyers at the 2009 European Film Market before its world premiere later that year at CineVegas. Asylum Seekers was released in North America on DVD/VOD by Breaking Glass Pictures under its Vicious Circle Films label.
