Click here to check it out, at this moment in time there is not much information on the production, only that Raymond Thompson is the writer of the film. Although the article by Variety stated the movie would have the title Tribes, it looks like it has the working title of ‘The Tribe’.

Both girls have work as models as well as pursuing acting work – I’m not sure how old the pics on their profiles are though.
For old times sake, here’s a pic of Paige Shaand Haami as Cass from when she was in The New Tomorrow, and here is Zoe Robins as Faygar.
