Anna Marie de la Fuente Principal photography is underway on Argentine Sebastian Schindel’s romcom-spy adventure hybrid “Mienteme” (“Lie to Me”).

Delayed slightly by the pandemic, filming of the Chilean-Argentine co-production has been taking place in and outside of Buenos Aires, now experiencing a summer heat wave.Schindel is best known for psychological thrillers such as his upcoming film for Netflix, “La Ira de Dios” (“The Wrath of God”) apparently even darker than his previous films. “Mienteme” would be his first romcom.

Schindel, who has a strong background in documentary filmmaking, said in a previous interview: “We are betting on playing the limits between reality and fiction.” “There are a lot of firsts in this film,” said Argentine lead and co-producer Lucas Akoskin who plays opposite his wife in real life, Chile’s Leonor Varela. “It’s my first time to work as an actor in Argentina and our first time to work together as a couple,” he pointed out.“The advantage of playing a couple is that we know each other, trust each other and even if we get on each other’s nerves, our marriage is solid enough to overcome any differences,” said Varela. “I’m filing for divorce in two weeks,” said Akoskin with a laugh.Based on a screenplay by Leonel D’Agostino (“La Jauria,” “Cromo”) and Schindel, “Mienteme” turns on a childless couple whose strained decade-old marriage is given a much-needed jolt when they try to match their friend Barbara (played by Argentine comedienne-actor Florencia Peña) with the suave and well-to-do Julian (Chile’s Benjamin Vicuña, “Locked Up”).When they realize that Julian is not what he seems and try to warn Barbara, she’s too infatuated with Julian to believe them.
