We were founded in 2017 by four time Bafta winning writer-director Sam Barlow, creator of Her Story.

In 2019, our first title, Telling Lies, was published by Annapurna Interactive. This intimate investigative thriller received rave reviews and was heralded for the depth of its story and the performances of its cast.
