The beginning of 2011 was very intense; the amount of work made us forget stupid things like New Year holidays and other simple joys of life. Lots of things are going on these days, so first let me introduce you two new projects that our studio launched on the second half of December.
Neither-Nor (a working title, may be changed in future) is a short film directed by Moushegh, therefore the film is really experimental and tricky. Although the draft script was written earlier this year, we’ve spent several weeks on shaping and finalizing it, analyzing similar stories that happened around the world, consulting with psychologists, testing the situations in real life and applying them to other people in order to be realistic.
In My Arrogant Opinion is also a short fiction film about a distant clash of two completely different people who never knew each other, but somehow turned to be enemies. The intense conflict evolves over the film, painfully revealing the well hidden sides of the characters.
Both films are in pre-production period, the shootings will start in the end of this month. The estimated release month of both films is April. Or maybe I shouldn’t have said that, as the deadlines are so difficult to keep. But anyway.
Both Neither-Nor and In My Arrogant Opinion are being made with the support of Royal Norwegian Embassy as two different parts of one project, so, once again, our warm gratitude to them!
And, as always, you can follow the progress of these films here, as well as by following our updates on Facebook page. We also tweet from time to time, if you’re interested of course. As soon as the shootings start, you’ll have plenty of production photos to watch (the most fun part for us).
Two more projects are still being developed and will be visible on our Current Projects page soon.
In the meantime, Neighbors, our epic movie of the decade, is in post-production in 24/7 mode (one day we will learn how to work like normal people and sleep at home at least once a week), the estimated release date is the beginning of February.
Good news; Moving a Mountain is going to be available on several platforms soon; Amazon Videos on Demand, Indieflix, Itzon online TV and Hulu. There are still some preparations to be finished, I’ll make a detailed post about the distribution of this film next week.
