From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the sun-kissed shores of Rio de Janeiro, every corner of the globe finds its voice on our screens.

Yet, our mission extends beyond mere spectacle. We are not here to make you famous; we are here to give you the recognition you deserve.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout.

A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later?

A good director’s not sure when he gets on the set what he’s going to do. I like directors who come on the set and create something that’s a little dangerous, difficult or unusual. The more ambivalent you are and the more uncertain you are, then you can get something that you cannot anticipate.

A story should have a beginning, a middle and an end, but not necessarily in that order.

No saint, no pope, no general, no sultan, has ever had the power that a filmmaker has; the power to talk to hundreds of millions of people for two hours in the dark.
