Manori Ravindran International Editor IFC Films has acquired the U.S. rights to “Operation Avalanche” director Matt Johnson’s new movie, “BlackBerry,” about the ill-fated smartphone that took the world by storm in the early 2000s.

At the heart of the story is the business relationship between co-founders Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie.

Nothing bad happened during our filming, and the film is the film.”
