Sara Waisglass is headed to the Ambitious City for her next feature. The filming of the romantic drama ‘Into The Deep Blue’ will take place in Hamilton, Ontario, starting in March 2026.

The story follows Fiona (Waisglass) and Nick (Hardung), who meet in group therapy and become best friends. Both are struggling to piece their lives together after experiencing loss. Things are really bad, and the last thing they require is to fall in love. However, a weekend trip brings their deepening feelings for each other to the surface, and they would rather cut each other off than face each other.
