Upcoming Film Project - September 20-21, 2018
The City of Cambridge is pleased to once again be welcoming the cast and crew of "The October Faction" to the city! This series is based on graphic novels of the same name, and focuses on Fred and Deloris Allen, reluctantly returning to their hometown along with their twin teenage children. There they must navigate small town prejudices, teen/parent relationships and the trouble with buried secrets. It will be airing on Netflix in 2019.
This project will be taking place on both public and private property classes as follows on September 20 and 21, 2018. The City of Cambridge was proud to be the location for their very first day of shooting for the series, and we look forward to welcoming them back numerous times throughout their September-December film schedule.
