Anova Pictures is a top independent production company with a track record of producing commercial, high-quality films. THE SILENCING, starring Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Annabelle Wallis and Hero Fiennes Tiffin directed by Robin Pront was a bonafide global smash hit. Recently landing as the #3 movie on Netflix USA, it is a Top Ten Global hit across 53 countries. Originally released across all platforms in the summer of 2020, Indiewire called it a “breakout success” with Variety reporting the “hit” as the top grossing new film release with the highest per-screen average in the U.S opening on 79 screens. The Silencing was the #1 VOD rental for weeks, continuing to top the VOD charts for two months and was Universal Pictures’ top performing international VOD title.
