The company has produced three short films: the French film, Trop, c'est trop (aka I've Had Enough!), set in the French Pyrénées; the Brooklyn film, The White Stuff, shot in New York with an international cast including Zach Grenier (The Good Wife, Ray Donovan, Devs), Danny Bolero (Broadway's In the Heights and Plaza Suite), Carey Harrison (Mamet's American Buffalo), Jonathan Duran, Thais Sobreira and Morin Golan; and Brutta Figura, starring, for the first time as an actor, legendary director James Ivory.
