Independent films and documentaries from Tel Aviv.An independent production company in Tel Aviv, led by producer and director Eviatar Moncaz. We make fiction and documentary films and work with international co-production partners.
Cinema first. Socially charged. Rebellious by instinct.
We make films about outsiders and people pushed to the edges. Cinema gives us time to stay with them, question what we see and carry the conversation beyond the screening.

Beyond the Films
We also make commercials, music videos, festival opening films and campaigns. Short formats give us room to play with rhythm, humour and a single strong idea.
The process starts with the story and how it should look. We then write, direct and produce it with the same care we bring to our films.
Film & Co-Productions
We develop and produce independent films, bring international partners together and prepare projects for the festival circuit.

Creative Direction
We write and direct commercials, music videos and branded films, and develop ideas for series. The work starts with a story and the images that tell it.

Production Support
Line producing, local production support, locations and art direction. We coordinate the people and practical details that keep a shoot moving.
