ALMA, Ga. (WALB) - Alma’s downtown district will serve as a filming location for the feature film “Taksil,” an action thriller set to stream on Amazon Prime, Tubi and other platforms.

Executive producers from ONE Compelling Picture and the Faith & Film Coalition Collaborative met with city officials to finalize plans for the production.

“Taksil” follows elite arson investigator Draco, who is murdered while investigating warehouse fires linked to a corrupt redevelopment scheme. His pregnant widow, Assistant District Attorney Victoria, uncovers a conspiracy involving organized crime, political leaders and stolen land deals. Leading the investigation is Draco’s closest friend, Thomas Blackwell, Chief of the Office of Fire Investigation, who orchestrates the cover-up. Victoria must confront Blackwell’s violence as she pursues the truth.

Road closures planned

On June 17, the production will film a funeral procession through downtown. The scene will feature a bagpipe player, horse-drawn casket carriage, fire trucks, police vehicles, funeral limousines and a fire department color guard.

12th Street between Public Safety Drive and South Thomas Street will have temporary road closures and limited parking for approximately four hours.

Local residents can participate as extras in the production.
