The Undefeated which chronicles Sarah Palin's rise from obscurity to national prominence will play exclusively at select AMC Theatres starting on July 15th. The film will launch in Dallas  Denver  Oklahoma City  Orlando  Atlanta  Orange County  Phoenix  Houston Indianapolis and Kansas City. Cinedigm Digital Cinema is managing the theatrical release and ARC Entertainment has taken on worldwide distribution responsibilities for the project. Written and directed by award-winning filmmaker Stephen K. Bannon and produced by Victory Film Group co-founder Glenn Bracken Evans and Dan Fleuette  The Undefeated was independently financed by Victory Film Group and its partners. After screening The Undefeated we took the unusual step of immediately exploring an expedited theatrical release something we normally wouldn't do during the busy summer months says Trevor Drinkwater CEO ARC Entertainment. AMC is committed to providing distinct content to diverse audiences across the United States says Nikkole Denson-Randolph vice president specialty & alternative content at AMC Theatres. We are proud to consistently offer a wide variety of product to our guests. The Undefeated is the ideal candidate for digital theatrical distribution says Jonathan Dern president of Cinedigm Entertainment Group. Given Palin's ardent following throughout the country digital cinema allows us to be extremely precise and efficient in our distribution strategy bringing this much-anticipated film directly to interested theatre-goers. In addition to the cities in which the movie is expected to launch the public also will be encouraged to vote on future theatre locations that may screen The Undefeated. Voting takes place at www.cinedigm.com/theUndefeatedMovie. We are thrilled that AMC will give The Undefeated a national theatrical release this summer says Evans. The documentary is made to be seen on a big screen. With its story of a small-town girl who against all odds rises to the pinnacles of American government the film plays with all the drama of a Rocky picture only with a woman as the central figure and with politics instead of boxing. The film includes leading prominent political commentators Mark Levin  Tammy Bruce and Andrew Breitbart as well as conservative activists Kate Obenshein  Sonnie Johnson and Jamie Radtke. Additionally the film features interviews with Alaskan civil servants elected officials and advisors who were involved in Alaskan politics during Governor Palin's tenure. We are extremely excited about the initial reception of The Undefeated. We knew we had a great story to tell about a true American hero says  Bannon.
