We are long overdue in announcing our participation in the latest iFeatures scheme, backed by Creative England, BFI Film Fund, BBC Films and Creative Skillset.
UK low-budget filmmaking scheme iFeatures has selected 18 projects for its next development slate from close to 400 submissions. We are pleased to be among them. Three films will be ‘greenlit’ in March 2015 with budgets set at £350,000.
As described in Screendaily "projects range from a chilling alien horror set in the Yorkshire Dales to a hard-hitting drama about the Birmingham riots." Among them is our feature film project Apostasy, described as a "cross-cultural love story played out amongst the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ and Pakistani communities of Oldham."
With writer Charlotte Wise and director Dan Kokotajlo, we are now in the process of creative and commercial development, with support from partners and other industry professionals.
"We were blown away by the level of applicants this year and were particularly pleased to see some great television and theatre talent applying for the initiative," said Christopher Granier-Deferre, iFeatures executive producer.
