The One of the Whale shows a fraying couple taking their daughter on vacation to Poland in hope things would improve between them. During a long car journey they experience a series of unsettling incidents that draw all three of them deep into their own inner worlds.
Road Films from Iran and Media Nest from the Czech Republic are coproduction partners and the estimated budget is 750,000 EUR. The State Cinematography Fund has recently supported the complete development of the film in the category of debut features.
“For The One of the Whale we hope to find Polish coproduction partners, as an important part of the story takes place in Poland. In general, we are eager to offer our services and coproduction funding to partners who are willing to share the same path in the search for exciting, professional and well crafted art house films“, says Jordi Niubó, who is producing through i/o post.
Other two coproduction projects of i/o post were supported by the State Cinematography Fund as well: A Very Ordinary Citizen by Majid Barzegar, the very first Czech'Iranian coproduction made in 2015 and Halves, a project set to be directed by Iranian director and movie star Ali Mosaffa.
