Accerts Productions to Present Completed Films for Sales and Distribution at AFM 2026

It takes courage to tell stories that matter. These films were made with care and conviction, and we chose to represent them because their stories deserve to be carried into the world,”

— Raúl E. Peyret, Founder and Producer, Accerts Productions

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, November 4, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Accerts Productions will bring three completed independent films to the 2026 American Film Market for sales, distribution and licensing discussions, led by the four-time award-winning feature Home(sick): A Journey Within. AFM takes place in Los Angeles from November 10 through November 15.

The completed-film slate brings together three stories shaped by migration, memory and cultural identity: Home(sick): A Journey Within, Bestefar and El día que me quieras: El viaje de Gardel. Accerts will meet with sales agents, distributors, broadcasters, curated platforms and other qualified buyers to discuss title-specific and territory-specific opportunities.

Written and directed by Raúl E. Peyret, Home(sick): A Journey Within is an approximately 85-minute character-driven drama about an Argentine expatriate who returns home after years in the United States, only to discover that belonging is more complicated than geography. An unexpected connection forces him to reconsider identity, love and what it means to feel at home.

Since its world premiere at the Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival, Home(sick) has earned four wins and seven nominations. The film won Best First Feature – International and Best Director (Thriller/Drama) at TINFF 2025, Best Hispanic Film at the Costa Brava Film Festival and Best Independent Film at the 2026 New York Independent Cinema Awards. Its festival journey has included its U.S. premiere at the Seattle Latino Film Festival and screenings at the TCL Chinese Theatres in Hollywood as an Official Selection of the 2026 Golden State Film Festival, where it was nominated for Best Feature Film.

The film’s journey has mirrored its story: a production created between the United States and Argentina finding recognition across Canada, Spain and the United States—from Seattle to New York and Hollywood.

Directed by Pablo Goldberg and produced by Sun Factory Films, Bestefar is a completed 40-minute Argentine-Norwegian documentary that begins as Karen decorates for Christmas in Argentina and receives an unexpected message from a woman in Norway: Karen’s grandfather and the woman’s grandmother once shared a relationship.

The revelation sends Karen into old family photographs, where every discovery raises another question. Determined to understand her grandfather’s hidden past, she travels to Norway to reconnect with family and retrace his story. Moving between intimate family memory and the larger forces that displaced generations, Bestefar explores immigration, lost love, childhood memory and the scars war leaves long after it ends. The film screened in Oslo as part of Films from the South 2025, followed by a conversation with the filmmakers.

El día que me quieras: El viaje de Gardel is a completed 32-minute animated biographical film tracing Carlos Gardel’s journey from humble beginnings in Buenos Aires to becoming the voice that helped bring tango to international audiences. Produced by the Universidad de Buenos Aires and selected for Cannes International Film Week 2026, the film is being presented by Accerts for sales and licensing discussions, subject to current rights and territory availability.

“It takes courage to tell stories that matter. These films were made with care and conviction, and we chose to represent them because their stories deserve to be carried into the world,” said Raúl E. Peyret, Founder and Producer of Accerts Productions.

Accerts is open to discussions involving international sales, direct distribution, digital and platform licensing, educational and cultural licensing, airline and inflight exhibition, and curated short-film or documentary programming.

Screeners, trailers, project materials and current rights information will be shared selectively with qualified parties. Meetings may be requested during Accerts’ AFM attendance from November 10 through November 15.
