Ryan Bonder’s crime thriller stars Anthony Head and Belinda Stewart-Wilson.
Kemistry Films, in association with Amerique Film, have completed production on The Brother.
Ryan Bonder’s crime thriller centres on a young man’s attempt to make a clean break from his arms-dealing family ties.
The film stars Anthony Head, Belinda Stewart-Wilson, Noemi Merlant, Tygh Runyan and Jed Rees. Bonder and Ron McLeod co-produce, with Martin Paul-Hus executive producing.
To tie in with its release (set for spring 2014), Bonder, DoP Brian Johnson and composer Marc Bjorknas will create an art installation that will travel with the film, working within themes contained in the story.
Commenting on the installation, Bonder said that “the idea is to create a secondary viewing experience that echoes themes in the film but work on a much less narrative level.”
The Brother, a Canadian production funded by Telefilm Canada, was shot entirely in London. Finance also came from Super Channel who hold Canada Pay TV rights to the film.
Search Engine Films hold Canadian rights and Shoreline International hold sales rights.
