Los Angeles, CA, October 02, 2024 –(PR.com)– The Best LA Thriller Film in years.” – Alex Saveliev

Los Angeles film production is very much alive through the making of the new film “When It Rains in LA.” The production company, The Big Picture Productions has officially inked with Gravitas Ventures, an Anthem Sports & Entertainment Company, for worldwide distribution, making its mark on the cinematic landscape. This poignant exploration of LA diversity, sugar daddy love portrayed by Oscar nominated Eric Roberts, and the European femme fatale played by Monroe Cline (Don’t Worry Darling, 2022) is not just a visual feast but also an auditory one, featuring three original songs by UMG artist FAIS, which are now in contention for major awards.

The producer’s intent is unmistakably to create a socially impactful thriller that will resonate in the genre well into 2025, with a strategic release in select theaters across the USA and worldwide. Peter Kallinteris, one of the film’s casting agencies and co-founder of The Big Picture Productions said, “When It Rains in LA was created as a social phenomenon that has the goal of giving a broader meaning to the unusual occurrence of when it rains in LA”. Set against the backdrop of the City of Angels, When It Rains in LA weaves a narrative that is intended to resonate with the everyday person, drawing them into a world where every drop of rain begins to unravel the characters.

“We are thrilled to partner with Gravitas Ventures,” said David M. Parks. “Their commitment to independent cinema aligns perfectly with our vision for this film, and we can’t wait for audiences around the world to experience it.”

As the film gears up for awards season, the original songs by FAIS, that has a history of blending emotional depth with captivating melodies (view FAIS’ 177M viewed YouTube music video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHUIbFNO0II), are already generating buzz among critics and fans alike.

Stay tuned for the official release date and prepare for a cinematic journey that captures the heart and soul of Los Angeles.
