Director Statement

The film-going experience in my opinion should be an event that carries you away within the contents of its story, characters or world. To become lost and fixated on what is placed in front of us in the forms of communication between sound and vision.

ASTRL pictures is an extension of that personal philosophy, to create stories, worlds and characters that can relate to every individual in a different way. After all, art is subjective and to have more than one meaning is something incredible whether its the complete opposite to the next person. As an Independent film production company, our goal is simple : to make original films.

Storytelling is ultimately key, to create and produce high quality original and unique ideas. Storytellers can be anyone or from anywhere, that’s the power of cinema. With 4 international awards, multiple nominations, and opulence of experience under our belt, we have been lucky enough to contribute to this medium.
