OUR FEATURES
Movies & TV
01. Silhouettes
Silhouettes is a love story of opposites that unfolds over a series of conversations in the spirit of Before Sunset and Lost in Translation.
Overview
Aamod is a retired executive and playboy who lives alone in his sprawling downtown Chicago apartment; Nadia is a whip smart lawyer in transit to see her conservative Muslim parents for the first time in more than a decade. When her train is delayed, a chance encounter brings them together for a magical day in Chicago, wandering its secret corners and its most haunting spaces for a few fleeting hours. What emerges through words is the power of their feelings for each other as Aamod grapples with whether he can let go of a tragic secret and embrace a future with Nadia.
02. Wannabeez
A new animated tv show starring the misfit security guards that have you feeling anything but secure.
Overview
The world of hotel security is a bizarre, cringe-inducing affair that could make a grown man run screaming incoherently into the night. Wannabeez is the new cartoon series that dares to go there, because like the staff, it has nowhere else to go.

03. The Scenesters
The new murder serial killer film noir comedy.
Overview
Someone is killing beautiful young hipsters in East L.A. But while the bloody trail is cold for the super-apathetic detectives, Charlie, a crime scene cleaner with a penchant for Sherlockian deduction, begins finding some unusual clues in the demo CDs of indie bands left behind at the murder sites which he shares with two out-of-luck filmmakers turned crime scene videographers.
Problem is, nobody is really sure that Charlie isn't the serial killer. Meanwhile, the dead hipsters are piling up like pancakes in thrift-store flannel, there's a rival Danish film crew, and on top of everything else, it looks like the killer is now making an experimental film of his own. Simple, not really, but then Murder never is.
Murder... A Serial Killer... Really Great Music.
Where to see The Scenesters
04. It’s a Disaster
Four couples meet for Sunday brunch only to discover they are stuck in a house together as the world may be about to end.
An average Sunday morning couples' brunch takes an extreme turn when the eight participants learn that this may be their last day on Earth. Tracy and Glenn are on their third date. Host couple Emma and Pete are keeping up appearances even though their marriage is falling apart. Lexi and Buck maintain an eccentric but happy open relationship. And Shane and Heddy have been engaged for years but have yet to tie the knot. Technological hiccups (no cell signal, a dead landline, and nothing but static on the TV) interrupt this breezy and determinedly cheerful gathering; but no one suspects that anything is really wrong until a gawky neighbor appears wearing a hazmat suit and bearing tidings of imminent doom.
05. The Fabulous Fiona

Submission guidelines
If you have that perfect script for us, please send a query letter with a brief synopsis (one paragraph to one page in length).
Please do not send scripts unless requested. They will not be opened and will not be read.
Right now, we are especially hoping to find that powerful and edgy script with minimal locations, like Memento, Bound, or Rear Window. Even better if it makes us laugh.
We like:
- thrillers/edgy/film noir (i.e. Memento)
- dark comedies
- off-beat comedies (i.e. Napoleon Dynamite)
- strong plots
- interesting characters
We’re not currently interested in period pieces.
Please note, if we request a script, it will likely be read by members of our company, professional readers, and/or our advisors.
