Filming Underway On 'Buy Borrow Steal'

Filming is now underway in Belfast on the quirky romantic comedy Buy Borrow Steal.
Directed by Eric Styles (Dreaming of Joseph Lees, Relative Values) from an original script by Camilla Leslie, Buy Borrow Steal is produced by Doris Kirch of Blue Angel Films and co-produced by Michel Morales from Miromar Entertainment.
Heather Graham (Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, Bobby) stars alongside Mia Kirshner (The Black Dahlia, Exotica) and Tom Ellis (Buffalo Soldiers).
Graham plays Georgina Scott a broody 33 year-old who sends her partner packing when it becomes obvious that he does not share her desire for a bundle of joy.
Zak (Tom Ellis) was going away on a documentary shoot anyway and he hopes that she will cool off in his absence. But Georgina discovers that early menopause runs in her family and heads for a specialist with her reluctant best friend Clem (Mia Kirshner) in tow. Learning that her babymaking days are numbered and her next cycle will be her last, Georgina enlists the help of Clem and their camp pal, Justin, to make the most of it.
A battle plan is drawn up but their escapades become increasingly frantic and elaborate as Georgina explores internet sperm donors, night-clubbers, builders and funeral-goers in her desperate and hilarious attempts to beat the biological clock.
Buy Borrow Steal will shoot for eight weeks in Northern Ireland and London.
The film is co-produced by Michel Morales of Miromar Entertainment and funded by the Northern Ireland Film & Television Commission (NIFTC).
