STTN Capital LLC has filed at least 5 lawsuits last November 6 against more than 100 defendants for allegedly uploading the Peter Bogdanovich film “She’s Funny That Way” to BitTorrent websites.
“She’s Funny That Way” is sold by Red Granite, the studio behind “The Wolf of Wall Street“.
Just like other piracy cases in the past, the defendants for these lawsuits were identified by their IP addresses.
The producer and Clarius Capital Group, which holds domestic rights of the film, are determined to bring the lawsuits to international territories, such as Europe, Asia, and the U.S.
