is a film and theatre production company set up by writer/film maker Carol Allen. (biog)

We have so far made two half hour narrative features.
With Marjorie Gone and Miss Threadgold.
These films were completed in 2012 and launched in a double bill in September as the opening event of a season of independent short films held at the Drayton Arms Theatre in Kensington.

With Marjorie Gone was screened at the Carmathan Bay Festival in Llanelli in April 2013 and was shown as part of this year’s No/Gloss festival in Leeds in October.

The film was then selected for the American Online Film Awards’ 2014 Spring Showcase.
