our films
QUAD Productions film work centers community voices and visions. We seek to elevate stories and movements of historically underrepresented communities and individuals who have been or are (re)crafting life and living for justice and dignity for everyone. and we believe that socially relevant media are also aesthetically beautiful and emotionally satisfying.
