Tag: Transference: A Love Story

Like a champion racehorse that won’t stop running, Transference has surpassed another incredible milestone! It has been viewed over 26 million times on YouTube (it was featured by the Times for having ‘gone viral‘ after chalking up half this amount.) Even though the film is free on YouTube, we can’t wait to see it on the big screen again in a celebration screening at Sanctum Soho and to see where our follow up film To Love A Narcissist takes us in 2025! Happy NY!

There’s either something wrong with my eyes or Transference has topped 20M views on YouTube! I swear I was only responsible for one of these views! It’s mind-blowing a micro-budget film about a niche mental health topic like bipolar disorder can create a stir. Co-producing this indie film with one of my besties (director/actor Raffaello Degruttola) and his phenomenal cast & crew was honestly the best distraction I could ever have hoped for from the apocalypse of 2020-2022. Be bold and keep talking about mental health! Off to get my eyes tested – just in case. I may have to delete this post later.

Thanks to everybody who has viewed, liked and shared Transference on YouTube, where it has just topped a whopping 8.5M Views!!! 8 is considered the luckiest number of all in Chinese culture, associated with wealth. As a gesture of goodwill and to pay the way for future film collaborations, I am marking this moment by writing director Raffaello Degruttola a cheque, immediately, for the sum of HK$8 (US$1.02), doubling his net worth! 😆

If you haven’t already seen it, you can view the feature-length film I was lucky enough to co-produce below!

Transference has received over 5.2M views on YouTube! The bipolar love story by Raffaello Degruttola explores the corrosive impact unresolved mental health issues have on an obsessive relationship. The film was made with a lot of heart and features haunting performances by its two leads. I was lucky enough to co-produce it. If you’ve not checked it out, you can watch the whole thing for free here! #mentalhealthmatters #controventofilms #1091pictures #mentalideas
