IFC Films has acquired from Myriad Pictures the U.S. distribution rights to director Jamie Babbit’s thriller Breaking the Girl, starring Madeline Zima, Agnes Bruckner, and Shawn Ashmore. Read on for details.

Jamie Babbit directs from a script by Mark Distefano and Guinevere Turner (American Psycho).

Synopsis:
Sara (Bruckner; pictured above) is an ambitious, beautiful twenty-year-old working her way through her sophomore year at Browning College. Alex (Zima), her gorgeous and privileged classmate, takes Sara under her wing. As the two girls become closer, they become friends with benefits. Alex and Sara commiserate over their respective enemies, and Alex half-jokingly suggests that they should kill off each other’s nemeses. Sara shrugs off the suggestion as a morbid joke…until someone turns up dead.
