Iancu is producing through Fantascope Films, a company established by filmmaker Florin Șerban.

“The Deer / Căprioara is an action movie and a detective story. That makes it different from my other projects and I am happy that this valuable project has found me and will enable me to contribute to the diversification of Romanian cinema. I said that the project found me because Florin Șerban discovered the script written by Iulian Postelnicu and he initiated the project. I was carried away by the script and having Bogdan as director and Florin as producer made the package irresistible,” Iancu told FNE.

Iulian Postelnicu, who wrote the script, was a young actor in Radu Muntean’s acclaimed One Floor Below / Un etaj mai jos (Multimedia Est, 2015).

The Deer is currently in development with the shooting loosely set for next winter. The budget of approximately 1.1 m EUR is partially covered by a production grant from the Romanian Film Centre, so international coproducers are welcomed, especially from the Czech Republic, Belgium and Germany. Approximately 70% of the budget is already covered.

This is the second feature by Apetri, following Outbound / Periferic (Saga film, 2010). Apetri studied film in Bucharest and New York, where he is currently living.
