Compy Films

Our scripted and unscripted work has taken us to the Hawaiian coastline, the ski slopes of Davos, a Cold War bunker, the engine room of a decaying ship, Philippine sugar mills and the front lines of Nigeria’s energy crisis. We put a great deal of care and intention into every frame, while maintaining our ability to zoom out and see the bigger picture. Our body of work over the past 13 years includes the TIFF breakout hit SCARBOROUGH, adapted from the novel by Catherine Hernandez, and the Oscar-shortlisted FRAME 394. Our work has:
