Judy Davis and Florence Hunt will lead the cast of Denis Rabaglia’s next feature film ‘Butterfly Stroke.’ The shooting of the project is slated to start in the United Kingdom and Switzerland in August this year. Rabaglia also penned the screenplay with Nat Luurtsema and Jessica Townsend.
The plot of the movie revolves around Ruth (Davis), a headstrong and eccentric woman who seeks to maintain control over every aspect of her life, including her own death. Determined to pursue an orderly and legal exit, she travels to Zurich. However, her plans take a turn when her estranged granddaughter, Lori (Hunt), unexpectedly shows up and refuses to leave without her. Despite their differences, their reunion becomes a transformative and loving experience for both of them.
Judy Davis last performance in feature film is as Mum, the mother of Nitram, played by Caleb Landry Jones, in Justin Kurzel’s psychological drama ‘Nitram.’ We also saw her as Molly Dunnage in ‘The Dressmaker,’ co-starring Kate Winslet, and Ms. Jibsen in the adventure drama ‘The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet.’ As far as TV shows are concerned, she played Rosey in Apple TV+’s ‘Roar,’ Nurse Betsy Bucket in Netflix’s ‘Ratched,’ and Hedda Hopper in FX’s ‘Feud.’
Young Florence Hunt starred as Hyacinth Bridgerton in the Netflix regency drama series ‘Bridgerton,’ Nimue in Netflix’s fantasy series ‘Cursed,’ and Allison in the Binge drama miniseries ‘Mixtape.’
Rabaglia previously co-wrote and directed ‘My Beloved Enemy,’ in which a professor’s life is thrown into chaos when he saves the life of an injured hitman who then promises to find and kill an enemy of the former. His credits also include ‘Marcello Marcello,’ which revolves around a young fisherman’s son named Marcello, who disrupts an entire village for the love of the beautiful Elena. Rabaglia’s directorial ventures extend to projects such as ‘Pas de Panique’ and ‘Azzurro.’
Stokes previously filmed ‘Lockwood & Co.‘ and ‘Bridgerton‘ in the United Kingdom. ‘Anthracite‘ and ‘The Palace’ are two of the several projects shot in Switzerland in recent years.
