We believe the best films tell universal stories. Not too complex, not overly arty, not too experimental. We want humane stories that will linger in your mind long after you've finished watching them (for all the best reasons obviously).
Over the years we've brought fresh and innovative films to the UK from across Europe, Asia, Latin America and beyond. In the process we've worked with the likes of Penelope Cruz (Don't Move), Daniel Craig (Fateless), Ellen Page (Mouth to Mouth) and are always looking for exciting new talents to work with.
One of our latest acquisitions, genre busting American indie/ mumblecore/ internet phenom Four Eyed Monsters is now available to purchase at Amazon.co.uk , Play.com and on our brand new DVD store .
If that wasn't enough excitement for you already, you can also watch all our trailers on our Youtube page.
Check out our most recent films below:

MOUTH TO MOUTH
Starring Ellen Page
Sherry, played by Ellen Page (Juno) is a young runaway who meets radical street collective SPARK - Street People Armed with Radical Knowledge - while she is living on the streets of Europe. She travels through the continent in the SPARK van, recruiting members of street gangs, drug addicts, and other disenfranchised youths at raves and town squares. Together they experience the group's giddy thrills, as well as its punishing manipulations, as Sherry's journey to paradise begins to sour. Mouth to Mouth is a gritty, original, and visceral film that gives Ellen Page license to demonstrate the qualities that put her on the road to stardom - and the Oscars - in another stunning performance.
