New Order: Noomi Rapace Not Waiting for Permission in Teona Strugar Mitevska’s ‘Mother’

Date:

Noomi Rapace is set to have big shoes to fill or perhaps a white sari with blue stripes as she will take on a one-week portrait as Mother Teresa before she became the Mother Teresa we all know. Variety reported that production is set for this coming September on North Macedonian filmmaker Teona Strugar Mitevska’s Mother – making for what will be one of our most anticipated (unconventional, non-traditional) biopics to look out for next year. This depicts five days in the life of a 44-year-old ambitious woman, just at the moment when she is to leave St. Mary’s convent and create her own religious order. Production is set to begin late next month in Belgium, where interiors will be filmed, before moving to India.
