A Crossover Prewedding Film? What is this? Who are you guys?

Award winning wedding cinematography team "Wedmoments", (Kostas & Dimitris Mantalias) came up with a really ambitious and unique idea for a crossover film almost one year ago, an idea that if completed successfuly may be a total industry-changer.

You read right in the previous paragraph. We mostly do weddings, but we consider ourselves approaching the genre in a really unique and personal way. And we also love cinema. So, when we met Vasia & Sotiris during July 2011 and talked about their ideas for their future pre-wedding video, we came up with this groundbreaking (for European standards) idea. Instead of creating the usual mellow and romantic prewedding films, we would go for a real short film!

Yes, a real short film, with the couple as main actors. Now, don't imagine some shiny love story here. When we discussed this with the couple, we thought that we can take many risks. This movie will NOT be something that you should watch with kids. It's a gritty action thriller, it's violent, dark and sexy and it has its moments of dark humour. In other words, it's something that will create a stir when it will be shown at Vasia and Sotiris wedding reception (and maybe some film festivals).

Ok. What the film is all about?

Some things you should know about the script. As we've said above, it's an action thriller. It is a story of a guy named Sotiris, who meets a girl outside a hotel in Athens and after a steamy night, he loses her traces completely. Trying to find her, he travels to Rome, Italy, only to discover that the girl he met is involved in something very big and dark, that involves high-tech heists, psychotic Interpol cops, in a story that nobody seems to tell the truth about anything.

Unfortunately we can't say more in order not to spoil the story which is full of twists and ends in a really wicked fashion.

We consider the project as a groundbreaking one, an achievement of a scale that has never been tried before in this side of the pond (with the exception of the USA), and we really believe it has the potential to change the European wedding video as we know it, and bring it closer to the real film than anything before it. That is, if we make the film as we plan it. And this is where you all potential contributors come in.

So, have you done anything yet? What's the plan?

Last September we travelled to Rome and did all the
