Stories That Make An Impact

Our films:

(a) are inspired by social injustices on which director/producer Fiona Ashe reported during her career as a broadcast journalist, such as war, police brutality, global terrorism, political corruption, exploitation of natural resources, miscarriages of justice, suicide, racism, surrogacy, addiction, bullying, adoption, bereavement, destruction of heritage, and the pursuit of inclusion and equality.

(b) are hugely marketable because they:

  • are based on high concepts (and often true stories)
  • are similar to films that have been screened in A-List festivals
  • are similar to films that have won prestigious global awards

Fiona Ashe’s directing skills are enhanced by her experience in various production roles on short films: editor, camera operator, sound editor, sound recordist, boom operator, casting director, production manager, first assistant director.
