Seeking actors for upcoming production of MEMORIES OF
OVERDEVELOPMENT, long-awaited sequel to perhaps the most famous Cuban
film of all, MEMORIES OF UNDERDEVELOPMENT/ Memorias del Subdesarrollo
(1968). Both films are adaptations of novels by Cuban author Edmundo
Desnoes.
Production will start in fall, mainly in NYC and the Catskills, but
also in South Dakota, Alabama, Miami, Havana, Venice, and Paris over
a three month period. Minimal pay. Food, lodging, and transportation
provided.
MEMORIES OF OVERDEVELOPMENT will be director Miguel Coyula s second
feature. His debut, the controversial RED COCKROACHES (2004), is
presently screening at international film festivals and has garnered
14 awards so far. In a June review Variety described it as
"undeniably inventive, visually stunning" where " Eros and Thanatos
take turns supplying plot twists ... in a future of BLADE RUNNER-like
bleakness." Variety called Coyula "a visionary with know-how."
