Blue Fox’s Lisa Gutberlet said: “We’re so thrilled to bring Empire Waist to the international marketplace and to be working with Wayfarer Studios. Writer-director Claire Ayoub and the film’s stellar cast have brought to life a fantastic and entertaining film, that champions body positivity, diversity and the power of female friendship.”

Ayoub added: “I wrote Empire Waist for my inner 12-year-old self who never thought she was worthy of her dreams due to her weight. Bringing this film to life fulfilled a creative dream for me, but it also proved to be a deeply healing experience, as well. I am so proud of the film we’ve made – a true love letter of self-love and friendship – and am beyond excited to work alongside Blue Fox Entertainment to share Empire Waist with the world.”

I’m feeling beyond grateful, deeply proud of our cast & crew’s brilliant work, and ready to find our movie a home so we can share it with all of you!

With love,
Claire
