Production has commenced in the UK on Albion, the latest feature from UK filmmaker Giles Borg, that is being shot across the space of a year.
It tells the story of two old friends who reunite across the four seasons, with Oscar Albert and Dan Christophersen producing for Far Away Films, and producers of Bafta winner His House Martin Gentles and Ed King executive producing. Greatest Days cinematographer Mike Eley is director of photography.
Cast and crew will be reunited at different times across 2023 and 2024, with the first of the four sections, summer, already completed.
I May Destroy You actor Ian Bonar stars as Kit, alongside Ankur Bahl as Sonny – two friends who have been drifting for years, but meet up to scatter the ashes of Kit’s grandfather, with each season bringing new revelations and trouble for the pair.
Borg’s directorial credits include BFI London Film Festival premiere 1234 and Flutter.
“There’s never been a more perfect time to make this film,” said Borg. The country is in flux, and this film asks us who we are. Kit and Sonny are two sides of British psyche. One is tied to the past and the other is nervous about the future. The story explores landscape, folklore and history. Kit and Sonny are they the same people as before, or have they changed forever? Only a walk through Albion can give them the answers.”
