Tuesday, October 7-----Agnes Jaoui's Let It Rain has been acquired by IFC Films for North American distribution. The French film has its North American premiere this week at the New York Film Festival. The company is planning a day-and-date release via its IFC In Theaters platform next year.

The film, set in the South of France, features Jaoui as a feminist novelist pondering politics as she returns to her family's summer home. As she works to resolve issues with the family business, she becomes the subject of a documentary.

The deal makes the third French film being featured at the Festival to find distribution via IFC. The others, which would picked up prior to the Festival include Arnaud Desplechin's A Christmas Tale and Olivier Assayas's Summer Hours.
