Zone Film Gets Roby's Piecemeal

I’ve not heard of anyone involved with this project, but sometimes those are the best kinds of projects to focus on for a bit. THR got word this morning that Zone Film is developing a new movie called Piecemeal, working from a script by Jeff Welch.

The film will be directed by Daniel Roby, who took home accolades from the Toronto International Film Festival a few years back for his Canadian vampire film White Skin, which was released here by Lionsgate as Cannibal back in 2006. The story of Piecemeal follows a teenager struggling to control his rage while living the life of a brutally abused young man in a series of recurring nightmares.

The only principal involved whose name I recognize is Martyrs producer Simon Trottier, which is good enough for me. Piecemeal will be the next film Roby directs after finishing up the 70’s-era saga Funkytown in March. We’ll bring you more as we learn it!
