‘Eastern Promises’ Producer Robert Lantos & ‘The Breadwinner’ Scribe Anita Doron Underway In Greece On ‘Maya & Samar’


Filming is underway in Greece on the Greek-Canadian co-production.

Directed by Anita Doron, best known for scripting Oscar-nominated The Breadwinner, and written by Tamara Faith Berger ( Lie With Me), the film stars Nicolette Pearse ( Maybe It’s You) and Amanda Babaei Vieira (Störung). “In the timeless city of Athens, bearing witness to real and imagined dramas for millenia, I feel weight and wonder in telling the story of privilege undone by resilience… Of raw, authentic humanity,” said Anita Doron. The Canada-Hellenic Republic co-production is produced in association with Telefilm Canada, Greek Film Centre, Distant Horizon, Bell Media, CBC, Ontario Creates, and the Harold Greenberg Fund, with the support of EKOME.
