An Australian mystery film drama is set to be entirely shot in Malta in the coming months.

The Three Lucias, by Screen Australia, will feature Claire Forlani, Ann Cusack and Valletta-born Marama Corlett in the leading roles by writer-director Sandra Sciberras, whose parents are Maltese. David Redman is the producer. The production is being supported by the Malta Film Commission.

The plot sees a man with a colourful past about to return home with the young daughter he didn't know he had until her mother Lucia died. His daughter is however unable to leave and forms an attachment to a movie star with her own secrets.

Over the three days of Easter Celebrations their lives intertwine with two other women called Lucia whose lives, part medieval and part modern, are filled with tragedy, humour and spirit.

Silent Lucia has walled herself into a life of suffering that only her love for her son can free her from. Pregnant Lucia thinks she is going mad and is trying to uncover why her mother did before it is too late.

The Three Lucias tells of the mystery that unites them all as they go on their quest for a little piece of heaven and shows the painful but uplifting complexity of motherhood.
