Another pair of films slated for Metro Detroit

Michigan is getting more film footage, with two more films, Landlord and Papou, to be produced in Metro Detroit.

Excerpt:

"Set in Hamtramck, Landlord follows the tale of Elvis Martini, a widowed landlord dealing with spiritual conflict and the abduction of his daughter. The project is being produced by Ele Bardha and directed by Malik Bader with cinematography by Christos Moisides. The script was written by up and coming filmmaker Nickola Shreli (Hostile: Part III, Abduction), who will also star in the film...

Papou is the tale of a wildly imaginative boy and his dying grandfather’s attempts to escape the clutches of death. A film about death, family, and the bond between grandfather and grandson, Papou plans to take the audience on a journey of self-reflection and discovery.

The project is being directed by Michael Angelo Zervos (Realizim).   Zervos also wrote the screenplay and is serving a co-producer alongside Michael Sinanis (Motor City Motors) and Christos Moisides.   The project has tapped Southfield-based Kinetic Post for post-production work."
