From our base in Calgary, we discover, refine, and actualize creative visions, especially those coming from overlooked or unexpected places. We excel at balancing artistic visions with practical considerations, in service of bringing our collaborators' distinctive art into the world.
We aim to chart the topography of the human condition, one work at a time. The end goal: a cinema landscape as diverse and interesting as its audience is.
