Currently developing and producing a slate of film and television projects that reflect a diverse range of African and diasporic stories with global resonance. Our projects span genres, from romance and drama to documentary and high-concept thrillers, all unified by strong character-driven narratives and cross-cultural perspectives. Select projects we're bringing to AFCM: To Lagos With Love – A romantic dramedy film originally developed through the Realness Institute in partnership with Netflix Africa. The project is produced in collaboration with Rellow Media (Canada), Inner City Films (Canada), and Circle Blue Entertainment (Canada), and has been shortlisted for the Sundance Development Track. Destination Wedding – A Crazy Rich Asians-inspired romantic comedy set between Toronto and Cape Town, exploring love, class, and identity. The Challenge – A high-stakes limited thriller series set in Lagos in the spirit of Squid Game, examining morality, survival, and social hierarchy in a distinctly African context. The Writings of Maria Firmina Dos Reis – An 80% funded documentary feature on Brazil’s first Black female novelist, a direct descendant of enslaved Africans. The film explores the intersections between Brazilian and Nigerian heritage, illuminating shared histories through literature, culture, and identity. A Thousand Words in the Rain – A poetic romantic short film directed by Akay Mason, capturing love, loss, and reconnection through visually evocative storytelling.
