Snow in April

Toronto – Sigourney Weaver and Alan Rickman are in Toronto for a four-week stay on the set of Snow Cake, a Canada/U.K. feature from Rhombus Media and Revolution Films of London. It’s the story, by Angela Pell, of the odd relationship that develops between a man and an autistic woman, set in rural Ontario. Marc Evans (Trauma, My Little Eye) directs for producers Niv Fichman (Childstar), Jessica Daniel (Beethoven’s Hair) and Andrew Eaton and Gina Carter from Revolution (Bright Young Things, 24 Hour Party People).

The 60/40 copro scored $1 million from Telefilm’s Canada Feature Film Fund late last year and is set to release through TVA Films. Steve Cosens (Seven Times Lucky) is DOP. Sean Davidson
