SC Films International and Rabbits Black to Launch Exciting New Film “Breeder”

SC Films International and Rabbits Black are excited to share that they have greenlighted the psychological thriller “Breeder.” This gripping film, written and directed by Alex Goyette, will start shooting on February 18th in Vancouver

In “Breeder,” we follow Russell, a researcher trying to save the bee population through gene editing. His journey leads him to cross paths with Patti, a dog breeder who has a darker agenda. As funding becomes scarce, Patti steps in to help, but her true motives are questionable. Russell soon finds himself caught in a web where breeding isn’t just about animals anymore, and he must find a way out before it’s too late.
