   "Love, Death & Redundancy." Full length feature film.

The first day of shooting took place way back on Saturday 5th July 2008 and it was originally hoped to have it all completed by the end of 2008. 

Unfortunately, due to continuity issues with the entire movie being set on one single Summer's day, we had to suspend filming until the Spring and Summer of 2009.

However, once again due to actor commitments, production difficulties and poor weather we didn't quite finish everything last year either. 

We had hoped to recommence production once more this Summer, but a shortage of crew has once again put things into limbo unfortunately. 

Some editing of the film has been completed and some rough draft clips are now up on the website. http://www.peasantvillepictures.com/page6.htm

The whole film has being shot in around the Coventry area and the filmatic process predominantly utilised weekend shoots.
