New talents Teresa de Pelegri and Dominic Harari are due to begin shooting their new feature project, in Madrid this month. The film is co-produced by Tornasol Films (Spain), Greenpoint Productions and the Film Council (UK), Madragoa Productions (Portugal) and the Patagonik Film Group (Argentina).

Although essentially a comedy, the film deals with some heavy subject-matter, namely the Middle Eastern conflict through the eyes of a Jewish family living in Madrid. Pelegri and Harari (who have written and directed several shorts and co-written film scripts including Novios and Sin Verguenza) will be joined by a cast that includes Marian Aguilera, Guillermo Toledo, Norma Aleandro, Maria Botto and Alba Molinero, director of photography, Danny Cohen, and artistic director, Soledad Sesena.
