    BUDAPEST: Director and screenwriter Attila Till is completing the development phase of Kills on Wheels, the story of a wheelchair-bound gang of assassins.

    Judit Stalter is producing through Laokoon Film (www.laokoonfilm.com) with the Danish company BeoFilm coproducing.

    Kills on Wheels / Tiszta szívvel is the story of a 20-year-old boy in wheelchair rejected by his father and scared of becoming useless. He and a friend, an ex-fireman friend, together offer their services to the underworld.

    Imre Juhász is the DOP and Szabolcs Thuróczy is the main actor. Judit Stalter told FNE that from a budget of 1,503,509 EUR, 295,000 EUR is already in place.

    The project has received backing by the Hungarian National Film Fund (www.filmalap.hu) and Nipkow Programm (www.nipkow.de), and will participate at Connecting Cottbus (www.connecting-cottbus.de, 8-9 November 2012).

    A 36-day shoot is planned for late summer 2013. The producer wants to have the film finished in March 2014. The premiere is set for May 2014.
