It started out of passion, of enthusiasm. It continues because the passion remains unchanged. And indiscriminate. We can't resist the power of the story that is begging to be told whether it is to entertain, enlighten, provoke and move. From the light entertainment series to the author driven cinematic opus. And because all the roads lead to Rome, we are privileged to have the best stories right in our own backyard…although we won't turn down one that will take us to the end of the world. Ever.
