DANNY GLOVER CURRENTLY SHOOTING IN CLEMENT VIRGO'S POOR BOY'S GAME TO BE DISTRIBUTED BY SEVILLE INTERNATIONAL Montreal, June 16, 2006 - Seville International is proud to announce that principal photography on Clement Virgo's fourth feature film, Poor Boy's Game, began on June 5, 2006, in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Poor Boy's Game stars Danny Glover (Saw, Lethal Weapon(s), Manderlay), Rossif Sutherland (I'm Reed Fish, Monk, ER), Greg Bryk (Shoot 'Em Up, History of Violence) and Laura Regan (Wes Craven's They, Saving Jessica Lynch). The film is produced by Damon D'Oliveira, Clement Virgo and Chaz Thorne under the umbrella of their production companies, Conquering Lion Pictures and Standing 8 Productions. Poor Boy's Game was written by Chaz Thorne and Clement Virgo. "My passion for Poor Boy's Game was sparked by the idea of exploring tribalism through two characters that choose to step outside of their respective clans in order to heal a community," said director Clement Virgo. "This compelling story is a modern-day take on some of my cinematic favorites of the mid-fifties, the 'classic' American period, like On The Waterfront, Rebel Without a Cause and East of Eden." At the age of 17, Donnie (Sutherland), was imprisoned for a violent crime against a young black man. The system deems him reformed, and releases him into the same vicious, working class neighbourhood that created him. Existing parallel to Donnie is George (Glover), the father of Donnie's victim, who has been silently awaiting the opportunity to take revenge on the person who severely injured his son. George surprises himself when, standing face-to-face with his son's attacker, he decides against imposing his own brand of justice. But, George soon discovers that he is alone in his need to move on with his life. His wife and the entire community want Donnie to pay in blood for what they see as an assault against them all. Donnie and George will learn to see beyond their history to the angry, hurt, loving and shockingly similar men inside. Poor Boy's Game is an exploration of the futility of vengeance and the potency of forgiveness. Poor Boy's Game was produced with the participation of Telefilm Canada, the Nova Scotia Film Development Corporation, Astral Media The Harold Greenberg Fund, the Ontario Media Development Corporation, the Canadian Television Fund created by the Government of Canada and the Canadian Cable Industry, and in association with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, The Movie Network, and Movie Central, A Corus Entertainment Company. The film is distributed in Canada by Seville Pictures. Seville International is handling international sales.
