testimony films

We are passionate about people’s life stories. Our aim is to record them, preserve them and use them creatively in television programmes. We look for surprising, entertaining and deeply moving stories that have not been told before.
We look for new ways of telling stories that bring a fresh perspective to the past and the present. We want to be the first to reveal stories, to explode myths and to inspire change.
