The thriller Flying Blind has been acquired by Showtime and will air on September 26, 2013 at 9:30pm ET/PT. Starring Helen McCrory, Kenneth Cranham, and Najib Oudghiri, Flying Blind marks the directorial debut of Polish director Katarzyna Klimkiewicz.
The indie drama premiered at the Edinburgh International Film Festival and has already had a theatrical run in Europe.
The Plot: A passionate post-9/11 love story, Flying Blind stars McCrory as Frankie, who is in her forties, ambitious, unmarried, and successful. But her life changes forever when she embarks on a passionate affair with Kahil (Oudghiri), a French-Algerian aerospace student twenty years younger. One day, she arrives at work and is detained by the security services: Kahil is a person of interest to MI5. Her well-ordered life starts to unravel in a welter of suspicion and prejudice, as Frankie no longer knows whether to follow her passion or listen to the doubts that increasingly overwhelm her.
