SANTA FE, N.M. – The New Mexico Film Office today announced the feature film, The Price We Pay, has completed production in New Mexico. Production took place during July and August 2021 in Las Cruces, New Mexico. The film is produced by Price Productions LLC.

“New Mexico was named a hot spot for film and television production in 2020 by Deadline Hollywood, with Las Cruces being one of the three cities highlighted in the state. From unique locations and crew to production resources, film schools, and a film office, Las Cruces is quickly building up infrastructure to support production in Southern New Mexico,” said Amber Dodson, Director, New Mexico Film Office.

The Price We Pay is directed by Ryuhei Kitamura (The Midnight Meat Train, No One Lives) and produced by Andre Relis (Wander, The Last Son) Robert Dean (Slayers, Dig) Bill Kelman (Serving Santino).

The Price We Pay, starring Vernon Wells (Commando, Mad Max), is the story of a woman with nothing to lose who is taken hostage by a group of criminals that quickly realize they are in way over their heads.

The production employed approximately 30 New Mexico crew members, 10 New Mexico principal actors, and 10 New Mexico background and extras.

“We are extremely grateful to shoot another film in Southern New Mexico,” said Director Ryuhei Kitamura.
