Here: Watts

Festival laurels
Community filmmakers
At the first screening
Gang homicides, 12 months

After a late-night police ride-along, an outsider asked a simple question: what would happen if the people living the story told it themselves? Twenty residents of Watts were handed cameras. No director shaping them. Rival gang members, police officers, pastors, mothers who buried their children — all of them cutting the same film. Sixty years after the 1965 uprising, the neighborhood America wrote off showed the rest of us what is still possible.

Two brothers try to run a trunk full of opioids from Florida to Alaska. A split-second act of violence in the California desert derails the trip and sets them on a crash course with tragedy. Shot lean, played raw, and carried around the world by festival audiences who wouldn't let it go.

Margot & Julian

Five days in the mountains of Oregon.

Acre ranch, one location

Margot & Julian is an intimate story about friendship, mortality, and the quiet rituals of saying goodbye. Set over five days in the mountains of Oregon, the film follows Margot as she reunites with her longtime friend Julian, whose decision to stop treatment for a terminal illness reshapes the space between them.

Two old friends reunite at a remote off-grid house in Oregon where the silence of nature stirs forgotten memories and the nearness of death provides a rare opportunity to say goodbye.

Devised and shot chronologically over two weeks at Willow-Witt Ranch outside Ashland, Oregon — no conventional screenplay, no AI, seven people and a house on a meadow. Arri 35 and Super 8, Cooke S7s, long takes and expositional restraint. Original score by Cormac Shirer Brown, plus two Molly Horses songs played diegetically.

Principal cast

Isolated in her desert home, a computer programmer struggles to cope with inexplicable occurrences that begin to unravel her reality. Dystopian, surreal and mind-bending — a low-budget sci-fi built out of silence, screen glow and creeping dread.

Code 047The house rules
01

Best idea wins

No hierarchy of credits, no waiting on permission. The strongest idea in the room gets made — whoever it came from.

02

Boots on the ground

We shoot where the story lives, with the people who live it. Twenty residents of Watts made a film that no outside crew could have made.

03

Break a few rules

Cost-effective is not the same as small. We route the money to the screen and let the industry catch up.

We are not here to be one of the same. We are here to shake the thing loose.

ContactBring us something dangerous

Development, packaging, co-production and finishing funds. If it is high-concept, told from the inside, and nobody else will touch it — send it.
