We make films that fund the people in them.

Run like a startup, built as a charity. Each sale and event funds the story and every transaction is published live.

How to get involved.

The film, the prints for the wall and the merch: all profits go towards Episode 2, where we build these kids a skatepark. Buy online or join us at one of our events.

What’s next

The second story isn’t ours to pick.

Pacific Kings is Episode 1. What comes next is down to the people who show up: the community shortlists three projects, the community votes, the community submits. If this is going to be a platform for grassroots stories, grassroots has to choose them.

The community votes on what we film, gets the products before they drop, and sees every transaction as it happens. Join free, if and when you want to support monthly, that’s a separate decision you can make later.

Room
A community, not a comments box
Categorised channels. Real names. Moderated by people on the ground. The room where the next story actually gets picked.
Voice
A real vote on what's next
Members shortlist three candidate stories per season. You pick which one we film. One member, one vote. No pay-to-play.
Receipts
Every transaction, in public
Every transaction published in real time as it moves. Sponsors cover overhead so 100% of community funding goes to the build.
