Our latest day in the studio:

Find the art from the Film:

How (and why) we make a magazine

Our goal is to bring the process of creation itself back into our consciousness. The fast-moving nature of the internet has many advantages, but it also has certain disadvantages. The imperishable, and the analog have attracted us since we started making films. This and our appetite for the experiences of other artists paved the way for our little print revolution.

Episode 04 - The Way Home

We were naive in 2020, and we still are today. The supposed irrelevance of print makes the process ambiguous, bizarre at times and difficult to justify. But we beyond justified it. We celebrated this medium and its beauty, its quality, its tactility. We pushed it even, with the highest quality papers, materials and printing processes. And now, you are crowdfunding this book with your help, because we believe in the magic of the printed word, and a shared interest in the world of art.

Episode 03 - Dear Society

It started as a magazine, but came out as a book after one year of work. On 211 pages with many features and different paper stocks, this episode discovers how important it is to look beyond yourself. Together with a collection of artists from all around the globe, we reflect upon our society and how it influences everything we do and create. How it inspires us and how we can all participate in making it evolve. Episode 3 is meant to educate and unify, lifting taboos on unspoken topics that concern us all.

Become a Hometown Friend

We believe that art should be accessible to all of us, which is why our stories will always remain free and for everyone to watch, read or listen to—but creating them requires resources, dedication, and a network of supporters who value independent artistic storytelling.

By becoming a Hometown Friend, you can help us do that and play a crucial role in sustaining and expanding our work. Your support directly contributes to the production of our films, the growth of our community, and the realization of cultural events. In return, you become part of an engaged group that values art and its impact on society, and more.

    What began as a visit to Hugo's studio, turned into an adventure across Brighton's countryside filled with conversations about consciousness and the sensation of inhabiting a human body.
