At the beginning of every month, Ioncinema.com’s “Tracking Shot” features a half of a dozen or so projects that are moments away from lensing and that we feel are worth signaling out. This February we are keeping tabs on So Yong Kim, Tom McCarthy and Dito Montiel who are all filming their third films which happen to all be set in the state of New York. Outside of the U.S, I’m with Cancer sets up shop in Vancouver, Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod will lense the adaptation of Guy De Maupassant’s classic novel’s Bel Ami which will film in Budapest, and finally Ana Katz will film Los Marziano in her native Argentina.
