We are grateful to the Government's commitment to the Film sector on all levels, to the NOHFC for financially supporting our film, and to the Economic Development Office in North Bay for their unwavering support and help facilitating an amazing production experience,” said Alex Lalonde, COO of Lakewood Producer and Stratagem Rx. “We look forward to coming back for several projects we have in the pipeline. We are also thrilled to announce that Lakewood has been accepted to TIFF and will screen in the Special Presentation Category this fall.”

"We had an incredible experience filming 'All My Puny Sorrows' in North Bay. The local film office went above and beyond on behalf of the film. The local crew was talented and industrious. Everyone we came in contact with genuinely wanted us to succeed and to return again, which we undoubtedly will.'

“I just wanted to reach out and thank you all for your help. It was such a pleasure shooting in North Bay; we felt so welcome. Thanks for making it possible”.

"We wrapped on “Flee The Light”, a mystical horror thriller, in North Bay on October 4th 2020. The city and people of North Bay were wonderful to work with and everything went so smooth that we are already in talks to return shortly with another project.
The natural beauty of the city with Lake Nipissing, the vast forests and hills made for stunning locations.
On the more human side, we discovered an excellent support network of location managers, grips, electrics, art department personnel, HMW personnel, PAs and more.
Thanks to everyone who participated in “Flee The Light” and I can't wait to come back to North Bay; a place that will always be in my heart."
