Leading UK production company Future Artists Entertainment are currently in production of new horror-thriller film-Borderline-which will be shot in both the UK and Malta.

Khalifeh will play Zena, a young woman who turns up at the rundown Borderline pub for a date with the handsome and charismatic Jack. Zena soon realizes she has been stood up and ends up having a drink with bumbling but charming local, Paul, played by Laviscount. He’s not a threat and he’s good company but Zena could not be more wrong on both counts! Paul is in fact a serial killer, who lures his victims inside the lawless walls of the Borderline.
