Producers of Semester Cinema and Kingdom County Productions are seeking Berkshires local actors for consideration for all roles in their next film, set to be shot in the area during March, April and early May of 2026. Currently working under the title An Enemy of the People, the project is an hybrid adaptation of the Tony-winning play by Henrik Ibsen and Dashiell Hammett’s noir crime novel, Red Harvest. Set in 1957, the film follows Dr. Ebba Stockmann, who returns home to respond to an urgent issue at town’s newly renovated spa and mineral baths, only to find the man who called her in has mysteriously died. Suspecting foul play but getting nowhere with local police, she recruits the help of the town’s newspaper editor for a winding investigation that eventually cracks open widespread issues of corruption, contamination, and complacency.

The project will be produced under an agreement with SAG-AFTRA, though non-SAG actors with strong resumes are encouraged to submit.
