Founded by @priyankashettyactor we produce cutting-edge plays, films, and documentaries that thrive at the intersection of activism and art.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Some stories stay with you long after you’ve told them. Some become impossible to look away from.

This film carries the voices of people who lived through a moment of terrifying violence and its aftermath. But it’s also about something bigger: what it means to tell stories that aren’t yours, the responsibility of keeping them alive, and the power of art to confront what we would rather not see.

At a time when the forces we thought belonged to the past feel frighteningly present, making this film has only strengthened our belief that we cannot afford to look away.

We’re deeply grateful to everyone who helped bring this journey to the screen. Here’s the first look at our documentary: #CHARLOTTESVILLE - Fearless Art in Fearful Times.

We’re looking forward to sharing more with you through an in-person premiere screening and an exclusive digital preview of the film. Details coming soon!

COMING SOON 🎬

A documentary film. The story behind #CHARLOTTESVILLE, the journey beyond the stage, and the world we’re living in.

From Charlottesville to Edinburgh, an immigrant artist takes a fearless play about white supremacy across borders as authoritarianism rises and the line between art and reality begins to blur.

Got a story worth telling? Let’s make it 🎬👇

For me, it’s all about good stories, great passion in telling them, and working with people to bring ideas to life.

I’ve always enjoyed moving between different worlds, learning something new on every project and figuring out how to turn an idea, a person or a place into something worth watching.

I love the variety that comes with filmmaking, from narrative and documentary to commercial projects, and from a camera on my shoulder to a drone in the sky.

I want to help people tell their stories; whether they end up on a phone, a TV or the big screen.

If you’ve got an idea, a project or just something you’d love to bring to life, my DMs are always open. Let’s have a chat!

Back in August and September 2025, I shot and directed #Charlottesville, Fearless Art in Fearful Times.

In 2017, the white supremacist rally Unite the Right took place in the small town of Charlottesville. Neo-Nazis turned violent, people were injured, and lives were lost.

The documentary follows @priyankashettyactor as she brings her solo show to the Edinburgh Fringe for its first international premiere. From there, the documentary continues in the US, between Philadelphia and Charlottesville.

Priyanka’s docu-play is built from firsthand accounts, court transcripts, and news reports surrounding the events of 2017.

During filming, we had the opportunity to visit some of the key locations connected to those events and speak with some of the people most closely involved in both the rally and the creation of the play.

We explore themes such as art as a form of activism, political trends unfolding around the world, the importance of remembering events like these, and much more.

A year ago, we knew this documentary would be relevant to many of today’s issues. Recently, Glasgow saw an anti-immigration rally that, while very different in context, echoed some of the rhetoric and tensions surrounding the events of Charlottesville. It was a reminder that the conversations explored in this film remain as relevant as ever.

That’s why I’m both saddened and excited to share a first look at some of the stills I captured (Rec.709, no colour grading). Together with @ecordiner101 , we’ve been working hard on the edit, and we’re now approaching a 40-minute picture lock.

There are much heavier images that would not feel right to release outside the context of the documentary. For now, I’ll leave them to your imagination.

This isn’t just an announcement for a new documentary. It’s a reminder to think critically, act where you can, and not let history repeat itself.
