IndieDVD Inc., an alliance of independent filmmakers and marketers, today announced that they have acquired the DVD rights to several short independent films for their upcoming DVD compilation. Under terms of the standard agreement, the filmmakers and production companies have granted IndieDVD digital-exclusive rights to their film for the purpose of DVD distribution and retail sale. Indie DVD offers the filmmaker a full screen, interactive medium for independent cinema that can be played on a home entertainment system.

IndieDVDs most recent acquisition is Lionheart Production’s Korean War film The Nest. Recognized as the Best Action Short at the New York International Independent Film Festival in 1999, the twenty-four minute long film features Nathan Blackburn, former cast member of MTV’s Real World Seattle. Set on the battlefield during the Korean conflict, “it is a story about the battle between the soldiers — and the battle within themselves” according to producer and co-star DJ Perry.

Other films tht are currently scheduled for release from IndieDVD areFlying with the Angels, A Wealthy Woman, Hidden Child, Lights…Camera… Action Figures!!! and The Passage. Currently IndieDVD still continues to accept submissions and expects to have its first DVD to be available later this year.
