WHO WE ARE
Sibling filmmakers. As children in the suburbs of Detroit, we used to rally the neighborhood kids into making “movies” with us on VHS. Some things just don’t change.
WHAT WE DO
Based in LA & NY, we write, direct and produce films together. Our award-winning work has screened at festivals around the world and can be seen on numerous streaming platforms.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
Stories shape culture by reflecting it. Entertainment can still challenge us.
Our responsibility as artists is to contribute to the conversation. We are committed to exploring lives that don’t often make it to the screen. To wrestling with formidable questions. To reaching for something wild, strange, and more meaningful than the status quo.
A place both thrilling and thoughtful. Profound and obvious.
The ordinary and the absurd.
