A film shot in Caithness starring Outlander’s Sophie Skelton has landed a major deal.

Inspired by real-life expeditions, Row follows a failed transatlantic world record attempt that sees a woman washed ashore on a rowing boat, who must piece together her memories to prove her innocence regarding her missing crew.

Row is the feature debut of UK-based director Matthew Losasso, who wrote the film alongside Nick Skaugen. As well as Skelton – best known for her role as Brianna Fraser in the drama series Outlander – Bella Dayne, Akshay Khanna, Mark Strepan, Tam Dean Burn and Skaugen are also among the cast.

Now Kaleidoscope Film Distribution (KFD) has acquired worldwide sales rights to the psychological survivalist thriller, which it will launch at this week’s American Film Market (November 5-10).

KFD retains UK-Ireland distribution rights on the film, and is scheduling a 2025 release.

Skaugen produced the film for his UK company Immortal Elements.

“It’s been a long journey getting to this point and despite the practical difficulties of creating a film set out at sea, in an isolated yet visually stunning location, it has been worth it to create such an unusual and gritty-feeling film,” said Skaugen.

KFD CEO Spencer Pollard described it as “a tense, brilliantly-made, best-of-British thriller”.
