Sacrifice is a 2011 American/Canadian action thriller film written and directed by Canadian film director Damian Lee, and starring Cuba Gooding Jr. and Christian Slater. It was filmed in Ottawa, Ontario.[1] The movie was produced by Zed Filmworks based in Ottawa, as well as Styx Productions[1]. This film was released direct-to-video.

Plot

A tough undercover cop named John (Cuba Gooding Jr.) inadvertently gets involved in a dangerous heroin ring when Mike (Devon Bostick), a young defector of the drug trade leaves his five-year-old sister, Angel (Arcadia Kendal) within his care. After Mike is killed, Angel is kidnapped and trapped in an underground drug ring. John then sets out to save the girl with the help of Father Porter (Christian Slater). John is initially acquainted with the priest after the death of his family in an underground operation that went south, where his wife and daughter were the victims. His life after the murder has him finding solace in alcohol as he turns to Father Porter for salvation in his attempts to save Angel. Unbeknownst to this, Father Porter enlists in the help of John once the statues within his church are stolen by violent criminals and he too is then wrapped up in the whirlwind of this world of crime and punishment.

Production

The casting of this film was done by Stephanie Gorin and Ilona Smyth, the costume designer was Ton Pascal, and the production designer was Lisa Soper.[2] This film was also executively produced by Jeff Sackman, Darren Bell, and Adrian Love.[2] In this film Kim Coates and Stephanie Gorin were also responsible for co-executive producing.[5]

The production began March 28th, 2010 in Ottawa, Ontario on the indie crime film into late April.[3] The reported budget of the film is $6.8 million. Although the film is set in Los Angeles and Toronto, the production team dressed the streets of Ottawa to look more like these cities while making the most of their surroundings.[3] The movie being filmed outside of Toronto had to do with the preferable provincial tax breaks given to filmmakers who film in other areas of the province. With this push, it was reported that in the year of 2011 Canadian owned and controlled distributors were responsible for 77% of films released in Canada (both Canadian and non-Canadian films).[4]

According to Robert Menzies of the production team "the movie has a lot of religious overtones...it's a no-holds barred action film with lots of interesting themes."[3]

Release

The film was distributed exclusively through Alliance Films in Canada on April 26, 2011.[2] It was also released on DVD and Blu-ray in the United States through Millennium Entertainment. The international release of this film was handled through Bliss Media (China), ACE Entertainment (France), Emerald (Argentina) and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (Australia) respectively.[5] The release was handled by Tanweer Films for most of South Asia, including Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.[5]
