Yael Bergman will produce, and is joined by executive producers Laura Waters and Andrea Denholm.
Abbey Lee Kershaw has been cast as Czech woman, Kershaw. “I’m super amped on this one and not just because it is Australian. It’s because it’s an independent film that is character driven and emotion driven and based on real-life stories.” Sydney Morning Herald
