Our aim is to move and inspire our audiences; to make you laugh, cry and think.
We like to tackle important, relevant themes and package them in fresh and entertaining ways.
Working in live action and animation, we love crossing genres and mixing media.
We build on proven IPs and create our own.
Feature Films & Series
Our first feature film ~ COPPELIA ~ is a modern fairytale for a family audience, told without words, through an original combination of animation, music and live action dance. COPPELIA features a diverse international cast, a strong, Black heroine and an important message for a young audience in the age of social media - Be yourself! The film premiered at Annecy International Animation Festival 2021 to critical acclaim. COPPELIA has been selected for many film festivals and released in cinemas, on streaming platforms and TV - including a nationwide Thanksgiving broadcast on PBS in the US, and a Christmas broadcast on the BBC in the UK. Awards include Best Fiction Feature at the 40th Cambridge Film Festival and IFMCA Film Score of the Year 2021.
We have an exciting slate of films and series in development.
