Looking into specific distributors, Momentum and Lionsgate were my first two choices. After looking at Lionsgate, I judged it not that closely tied with successful thrillers - however Momentum came across promisingly, having taken on films such as 'The Woman in Black', 'Limitless' and 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' series. However it came across as highly American and big-budget, perhaps not too suitable for Gaia's Army... then using the IMDB site I found
Columbia TriStar Film Distributors
which looked promising. Big budget, yes, but also with a British stand which has successfully taken on films such as 'Layer Cake', 'Spiderman', and 'Men in Black'. The sci-fi element to films such as men in black and spiderman, in which the ultimate goal is to save people from a terrible fate, matches Gaia's Army's plot line which works around two teenage boys saving the world with nothing more than an iPhone. While perhaps lacking in more conventional science fiction (such as aliens or superpowers) elements such as the existence of a secret and corrupt organisation can be fitting.
