Stonedog Productions

Stonedog Productions is an international film collective, conceived in 2006 by Ghanaian poet, filmmaker and journalist Ishmael Fiifi Annobil to engage a small group of international film and photography professionals, namely, William Francios Olivier (South Africa), Ori Batut (Israel), Sharon Tang (Singapore), and Abiy Mamo (Ethiopia). Stonedog has since grown into one of the biggest film collectives in the United Kingdom, boasting 25 active members in the UK and abroad, and an impressive roll call of collaborators and associates. 


We are noted for our peerless storytelling, aesthetics, poetics, and risk-taking. We embrace both realism and surrealism with equal passion and flow seamlessly between the documentary and fiction idioms. Central to our approach is actors, whom we view as very important interpretative artists.

 

Furthermore, we pride ourselves on our ability to do the impossible on any budget, without compromising our narrative or visual refinement. We believe in collaboration as a way round budgetary pressures, so as to concentrate on the playmaking process. This approach also guarantees our continued evolution as an art group.
