Our Films

Our first production was Ajay, a short film about an immigrant contemplating his recent arrival in America. Ajay was an official selection at the 2013 WMM Fest Hollywood Fringe Festival.

Mission 8 was also released in 2013 about a couple indoctrinated into a cult. Based on a true story, the short film reveals a common tactic called love bombing that cults use to convert unsuspecting new members.

We produced and edited a documentary on the life and times of family patriarch, Marvin Baker Schaffer. Executive produced by his family in 2015, the film explores the family dynamic of mid-century America. The stories about his life, told in his own words, is preserved for his family and their future generations.

Our first feature film, Miriam Graves, premiered at the 2019 Independent Filmmakers Showcase Los Angeles Film Festival. The film was nominated for Best Picture and won for Best Thriller. The story, about a woman who believes she is being stalked by death, explores loneliness and isolation as a lived experience.
