Barbie Ferreira, of "Euphoria" fame, is set to star in the Montreal-set indie rom-com "Mile End Kicks" for XYZ Films. Joining her in the film from writer-director Chandler Levack ("I Like Movies") are Devon Bostick ("Oppenheimer"), Stanley Simons ("The Iron Claw") and Juliette Gariépy ("Red Rooms").

Production is currently underway in Montreal, with XYZ funding through the New Visions initiative. The film is a Banner House Productions/Zapruder Films production in association with Rhombus Media.

Set in the summer of 2011, “Mile End Kicks” follows Grace Pine (Ferreira), a 24-year-old music critic who moves to Montreal with the intention of writing a book about Alanis Morissette’s “Jagged Little Pill.” Her plans take an unexpected turn when she becomes romantically involved with two members of the same struggling indie rock band and decides to become their publicist.
