5. Documentaries
Documentaries should engage with the here and now, challenge
the audience to broaden their horizons or see their world from
different perspectives. We’re particularly interested in making
more traditional subjects modern and relevant, rather than
worthy or predictable.

11. Film remains to be considerably
influential, having a good story is what
sets you apart from the rest. It is what
humanizes your output, showing value
while set to entertain at the same time,
is a strong foundation upon which we

used in our productions as it not only
entertains but keeps you, our client
and audience wanting more.

17. Kenya, 1964. Gaga and Mutia have
worked together, doing the same
jobs in the same workshop, for years.
They’ve watched many changes in their
country and now that Kenya has gained
Independence, the possibility of one of
them being the boss - the new Bwana - is
suddenly and surprisingly in the air. But
what would it mean for their friendship?
And how much do they really know each
other anyway?

was shortlisted in the 2011 BBC World
Service/British Council International
Playwriting Competition.

18. When you provide people with an emotional tie to a
product, brand, or service, you in turn create a reason to
act, a reason to purchase, a reason to move, a reason to
believe. Our approach to bringing your campaign to life
starts with the same invigorating emotion that makes
your cause, your product, and your business.
