Mount Productions

One year ago, we launched our company with our first movie premiere 🍿🎬
Not only did we raise the funds to create our second film, but we are looking back on this year in awe of how far we’ve come. Now with only one day of filming left on this new project, we are so beyond excited to host another event like the one you see above.

If you missed it last year, INCUBUS is available to watch for free on YouTube! It’s the perfect spooky season watch 👻👻

🇵🇸 🇲🇽 In a time where art feels pointless to create, where voices feel lost in a sea of discourse and bureaucracy, we feel the necessity of our work more than ever. The arts warn us of past mistakes and aid in the preservation of culture. By creating spaces that center on safety and inclusion, we are hoping to embark on these creative journeys as a unit, collaborating through every part of the process. We hope to see you joining that space for the premiere of our next film. (Details coming soon 😝)
