We selected these powerful films because they represent courageous examples of voices defying norms and patriarchy showing us new hopeful perspectives.

We’re not looking for polished portfolios or festival-ready reels.

We’re looking for filmmakers with a point of view.
Ideas that feel urgent, personal, necessary.

At Black Light Film, we focus on first features that take risks and carry meaning. Projects with depth, intention, and clarity.

When we commit to a project, we bring it the structure, care, and precision that a first-time director needs.
We collaborate with new filmmakers who are ready to take their first film seriously, because we do too.

🎬 Let’s talk cinema.

Independent cinema is where the real stories live.
No rules, no formulas, just raw storytelling. Indie film is about voices that don’t wait for permission, ideas that don’t play it safe, and films that stay with you long after the credits roll.

At Black Light Film, we’re all about this energy. We work with filmmakers who have something real to say, projects that push creative limits, tell untold stories, and bring a fresh perspective to the screen. No empty spectacle, just cinema that matters.

New projects are brewing, new voices are stepping up, and we’re just getting started. Stick around. It’s going to be a ride.

What’s Next for Black Light Film?

Independent cinema isn’t just about making films, it’s about making space. Space for new voices, for untold stories, for filmmakers who see the world differently.

At Black Light Film, we’re building that space.
From our home in Rome to the biggest international stages, we work alongside emerging and established filmmakers to create films that matter. In 2025, we’re deepening that commitment:
📍 At Cannes, where cinema’s future takes shape.
🎬 With new projects led by bold, independent voices.
🎟️ And a summer event that will bring cinema to life in a way you won’t want to miss.

The industry is changing, but not by itself.
We’re here to be part of that change, with the people who make it happen.

Are you with us?
