An untitled film helmed by director Lenny Abrahamson is set to begin production in Dublin on March 2. The cast will be led by Tom Burke and Eve Hewson, joined by newcomer Sean Meagher.
The narrative unfolds within Dublin's Jewish community in the late 1970s. It centers on Davey, a 12-year-old boy experiencing the complexities of adolescence and the evolving marital relationship of his parents.
This project marks a reunion for Abrahamson with his 'Normal People' and 'Conversations With Friends' creative team. This includes production designer Anna Rackard, cinematographer Suzie Lavelle, editor Nathan Nugent, and composer Stephen Rennicks.
The film is brought to life through funding from Film4, High Frequency Entertainment, Screen Ireland, and RTÉ. Distribution deals are already in place, with A24 handling U.S. distribution and Elevation Pictures managing Canadian distribution.
