EXCLUSIVE: Abramorama has acquired North American rights to Little Empty Boxes, a documentary marking the directorial debut of New York Times bestselling health journalist Max Lugavere. Following a week-long engagement at Look Cinema in NYC beginning April 19, the film unspools at Laemmle Santa Monica in Los Angeles beginning April 26, expanding to select theaters nationwide thereafter.
Co-directed by Lugavere and Chris Newhard, the film follows the life of Max’s mother, Kathy, as she battles memory problems and succumbs to dementia. In a quest to find his mother the best care, Max moves home to New York City and begins to consult with top health experts to investigate the origins of the disease, which now affects a staggering 55 million people globally, as well as methods outside of prescription medication to slow her illness down.
Central to the film is a discussion of how our diets and lifestyles might help slow down or even prevent various chronic health conditions, not just dementia. Lugavere comes to the project with an expertise in health and diet, as the journalist behind bestselling works including Genius Foods and Genius Kitchen.

Said Lugavere, “I’m excited to be working with Abramorama to bring this personal story to audiences across the country.”
Produced by Jacob Matthew and Cecelia Logue alongside Hilla Medalia, Little Empty Boxes‘ EPs are Courtney Reum, Sherry Milliken Reum, Rosemary Pritzker, Michele Promaulayko, Kiran
