When Matt Ya-Hsiung Balzer brought his “The Colonial” to MIFF as part of its “Peril” shorts program four years ago, it was clear that we were witnessing the cinematic birth of a really promising young talent. That promise is more than fulfilled with his Maine-set THE CATCH, which follows a woman who returns to her estranged family in coastal Maine and hijacks a drug shipment, putting her life and her family in danger. Blending thriller with family drama and incorporating a remarkable blend of acting talent including Katia Winter (SLEEPY HOLLOW), Bill Sage (AMERICAN PSYCHO), James McMenamin (ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK), Kyle Gallner (DEAR WHITE PEOPLE), Emy Colligado (MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE), and Jere Burns (JUSTIFIED), THE CATCH is unforgettable.
