Filming is currently underway on the set of ‘Losing It’, a new film written and directed by Northern Irish filmmaker Macdara Vallely (Peacefire, Fiorghael). The coming of age feature film is being produced by Samson Films in association with Escape Pictures and is shooting in New York. The post production will take place in Dublin’s ScreenScene.
Produced by Samson Films’ David Collins (Once) and Escape Pictures’ Paul Miller (The Pest) the film stars newcomers Yainis Ynoa, Flaco Navaja (Fighting, Pride and Glory), Rosa Arredondo (Feel the Noise).
‘Losing It’ tells the bitter sweet story of teenager Lena, played by Yainis Ynoa, who becomes trapped in a twisted love triangle with her single Mom Lucy (Arredondo) and her latest deadbeat boyfriend Victor (Navaja).
The film started shooting in and around New York on September 8th and wraps this week. It has a budget of just under $1 million and has been funded by the IFB, Werner Films and Samson Films with the support of Screen Scene in Dublin.
Post production for ‘Losing It’ will take place later this year in Dublin’s ScreenScene.
