"Be yourself, everyone else is taken"
Oscar Wilde

Limiko Films is an independent film production company established specifically to tackle issues at the forefront of social and technological development. We examine controversial or unexplored areas or ideas for which consensus and policy have not yet been reached. We favor projects that can shed light on new aspects of human existence and those that explore the hidden realms of the human psyche. We also try to have a good time.
Our fiction focuses on stories that embody the absolutes we absorbed in our childhood and on history that shapes a future. In particular, we like to explore borders and their symbolic significance, as these are the places that hold the key to change. They also represent an extremity and it is in the extreme moments of our life that we see things clearly, for what they are. We are esoteric and enlightened and so is our work.
