It's official, actress Raimonda S. and director of photography Stephen L. will join me on what is to be another exciting journey into moviemaking bliss; production begins this November. Locations will be in various parts of New Jersey and New York City. The wonderfully talented Raimonda will be playing as a highly motivated art student in NYC who gets involved with drugs, alcoholism and sex after a disgusting break up.
The 45-page script is a challenging piece of work that has been developing in my subconcious unknowingly over the years. The subject matter of self-destruction is a topic that has entangled my past characters but not as deeply as this character Raimonda will be playing with what I believe will be a defining moment in the independent film era. Sure we've seen drugs, alcoholism, and wild parties depicted plenty of times in cinema, but this story is strangely enough not even all about that, it's her characters' battles, but it's not the soul of the story. Me and my team will not be looking to make it a cliche movie but a powerful story that will open societies eyes wider to what should be all of our concerns about the people we know who are basically killing themselves. How much is it our responsibility and how much is it theirs?
And the movie will depict the love the main character yearns for but searches in all the wrong places.
The title of the new movie: 'One Last Sun Ray in the Eyes of Joy'
