Altered Innocence

Founded in 2015, Altered Innocence is a U.S. film distributor specializing in edgy and artistic foreign, queer, and coming-of-age films. Altered Innocence was founded in 2015 by former Strand Releasing employee, Frank Jaffe, to give queer cult films proper Blu-ray and digital releases. The company also distributes films for theatrical release.  In May 2021, Altered Innocence released a short film anthology, described as a "cinematic mixtape", titled Altered Innocence Volume 1. In 2024, Altered Innocence partnered with film distribution company MVD Entertainment Group; the former had previously been affiliated with OCN Distribution, a sister company of Vinegar Syndrome.
