Jassa is currently producing Modern Man, a short film for the Virgin Media Shorts competition. Virgin Media Shorts is the biggest, most high profile short film competition in the UK. There are 13 shortlisted films and 1 grand prize winner who receives £30,000 in film funding and BFI mentoring.
The film is directed by Jassa's long term collaborator Sebastian Solberg.
The strength of the script and the passion with which Jassa and Seb approached the project attracted an incredible cast and crew. Modern Man is written by shortlisted Virgin Media Shorts 2012 finalist Simon Guerrier and the cinematographer is drama and VFX specialist Dale McCready (Doctor Who, Merlin, Silk).
Sean Knopp (Doctor Who, The Bible), Ramanique Ahluwalia (American Academy of Dramatic Arts), Nicola Posener (Disney's Life Bites, Dawn of the Dragonslayer) and Nathan Bryon (Some Girls) all star in the 2 minute 20 second film.
More details about the film will be announced soon. For more information visit Modern Man's official Facebook page or follow the film on Twitter @ModernManFilm.
