Freestyle Acquires ‘Single Car Crashes’ for Early 2025 Release

Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, proudly announces the acquisition of North American VOD rights to the small-town drama feature film Single Car Crashes (IMBD page here), which will be available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, in early 2025.

The film tells the story of Sean, a one-time promising baseball recruit with a bright future, who still lives in the same small town where he and his friends grew up, works the same menial job he did in high school, and struggles with survivor’s guilt. Ten years after a devastating car crash took his best friend Zach’s life; Sean must now confront his failure to launch or risk alienating his nine-year-old son and being left behind by the loved ones who know him best.

When Zach’s sister—and Sean’s first love—Kendall returns to town to marry someone else, the two reunite over their shared loss and flirt down memory lane until sparks fly. An authentic portrait of enduring grief and friendship with a warm Midwestern charm, Single Car Crashes explores what’s possible when one learns to look toward the road ahead rather than focus on the rearview mirror.

Ward comments:

“Going to high school in rural Illinois, I lost several of my young peers – including a best friend – to one-car accidents. Single Car Crashes is my love letter to the Midwest. It’s a coming-of-age story for adults, steeped in realism and unflinching in its portrayal of messy and complicated relationships.”
