The movie, marking award-winning short film writer/director Riley-Smith's first feature, stars Louise Brealey (TV's Sherlock and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel) and Nico Rogner (Looking for Simon).

Billed as a dark, comedy romance, tells the tale of a passionate chef who resorts to extreme measures to get an obsessive dieter to eat good food and is described as Chocolat meets Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down.

Riley-Smith begins shooting on location in London this week and marks the first project as a producer for Michael Price, whose resume as a composer boasts the double Emmy and BAFTA nominated score of BBC's Sherlock, composed with David Arnold.

Said Riley-Smith: "It’s so exciting to get the film underway this week and with such a fabulous cast and a wonderful crew – we are so fortunate to have such a great line up on board. I am looking forward to working with everyone to bring the project to the big screen."
