Egoyan to explore love, technology in "Wonders"

By Steven Zeitchik

NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - Writer-director Atom Egoyan will blend reality and fantasy in his next film, the love triangle "Seven Wonders."

The project centers on a woman named Pandora who, after her own relationship goes south, becomes consumed by a relationship between a commercials director and the director's boyfriend, even following the helmer as she shoots commercials at the Seven Wonders of the World.

... "It's an intimate story that I think can be harnessed on a larger canvas," Egoyan said. "The Seven Wonders are an escape from our lives, places where we can believe in something larger."

... Egoyan said he's interested in modern technology because of the idea "that it's so easy to be in contact (that) relationships can get complicated and confused."
