Deepa Mehta will start work on her next feature in November, again putting Water star Seema Biswas in front of the camera, this time paired with Bollywood star Preity Zinta, seen recently in the TIFF selection The Last Lear. Heaven and Earth, set to shoot in Toronto and India, follows a young Indian bride who creates an alternate reality to escape her abusive marriage. Mehta directs from her own script, again teaming with producer David Hamilton and distributor Mongrel Media.
