About Us
We are a talent led production company with a proven track record directing and starring in award winning productions such as Dreaming Whilst Black, Queenie, We Are Lady Parts and The Night Manager. We create stories cemented in the real world, that are interrupted by the bizarre, the unconventional and the strange.
We believe stories should have levity even in the darkest places. We combine our real world experiences as children of immigrants to bring cultural specificity to often stereotyped characters and stories.
Our Aims
We are for a global audience and particularly those who experience a cross cultural world. We believe genres are intersectional, making us open to storytelling in a myriad of ways.
We believe most stories should have these three things:
- Levity
- Compelling characters
- A sense of place
Our Work
Greasy Spoon is a great example tonally of what we like to make and the type of projects we are working on. A character driven story with nuanced social commentary within grounded sci-fi.
We have projects that span comedy, drama, magical realism, crime, horror and thriller.
Our TV narratives are often told through the lens of the ‘outcast’ or the most marginalised in society.
Our film projects are mostly genre with a cultural undertone. From a Caribbean Folklore horror to an aspirational comedy-drama based on the first all-Black kite flying troupe.
Our Goal
To be a production company that’s unafraid to push boundaries and spark conversation
