Our core philosophy lies in the belief that the journey of filmmaking is as deep and significant as the story that unfolds on the screen. We challenge creators to "dare enter the deepest confines of yourself." To venture beyond your imagination, to cut to your truth, to find yourself through the transformative power of film. We believe in stories that are raw, authentic, and soul-stirring, especially those that center around character depth and quests.

Diario Italiano Film Festival 2024, Florence

BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE

Wild Filmmaker is the first magazine in the World dedicated to the post-cinematographic era in which we are living and where all human beings that have a smartphone can tell a story through images.

Until a few decades ago, going to the Circus was considered interesting and even fun, elephant bowing in front of the crowd or the lion playing with a colorful ball like a kitten. Today, the public opinion is horrified at this behaviour considering the poor elephant and lion victims of men’s pleasures.

All this confirms that Art evolves together with awareness from the audience it is intended. In this historical moment, Cinema is facing an evolution phase that is ongoing.

We are beginning to realize that Cinema, like the Elephant and Lion, have the right to exist freely.

Indobali international film festival, Indonesia

Art, in all forms, inspires us. From the first drawings of the prehistoric man to Artificial Intelligence driven illustrations, the journey of art has been one of curiosity, progress and redemption. The form of cinema is the most impactful of them all. It is only this art-form that has the power to blend time with space. The real and the imaginary correspond to one another in films. It is only in cinema that we can reflect, introspect and often modify our realities as well as our history. It is a medium to look into our past and our future.
