The film is the second to be codirected by film editors Aleksandra Gowin and Ireneusz Grzyb. Agnieszka Dziedzic and Jakub Burakiewicz are producing for Koi Studio. The film is coproduced by Fixafilm Postproduction House. Little Crushes received a grant of 436,705 PLN (104,054 EUR) from the Polish Film Institute. The film’s budget is 990,983 PLN (236,123 EUR).
Little Crushes tells the story of Kasia, Asia and Peter. The women live together and run a small business clearing out apartments when the owners move away or die. Peter, who recently left his wife and quit his job, finds himself in competition with Kasia for Asia’s affection.
“The idea behind the project is to enable young talents to make their debut in the industry by creating a new, innovative approach to low-budget filmmaking. The story (script) and vision (direction) grow side-by-side with an understanding of the scale of the production,” Dziedzic told FNE. “Our ethic is can-do, so we don’t give in to straightforward negativity, but we regard it as a challenge to overcome. Regarding the plot, Little Crushes has already been called a Polish version of Sundance type films which is exactly where we are heading.”
The premiere is planned for 2014.
