Written by the brilliant Jocelyn Bioh and directed by the visionary Monique Touko, Jaja’s African Hair Braiding is a joyful, powerful portrait of community and identity. The play is heading over to the Lyric Hammersmith Theater this March! As Jocelyn says: “I truly cannot wait for the shop to open!” And Monique reminds us: “We will invite everyone to the shop—to listen, learn and laugh”. We are so proud to support these incredible artists as they reunite to bring this story to UK audiences. Tickets are on sale now! ✨

We are honored to be part of the Saturday Church journey and celebrate opening night this week!! It has been wonderful to see Damon Cardasis’ vision brought to life on stage. From the director of Jaja’s African Hair Braiding and NYTW Usual Suspect, Tony-nominee Whitney White, comes Saturday Church, featuring a book and additional lyrics by Emmy Award-nominee Damon Cardasis & Pulitzer Prize-winner and Tony Award-nominee James Ijames, with music and lyrics from Grammy Award-nominee and pop icon Sia and additional music by Grammy Award-winner Honey Dijon.

Saturday Church tells the story of Ulysses—New York City kid, devoted son, and the fiercest tenor at his aunt’s church. A chance encounter on the subway introduces him to the world of Saturday Church, a sanctuary for LGBTQ+ youth. Caught between two worlds, Ulysses wrestles with family and faith as he strives to find the place where he can love and be loved—in all his fabulousness. 🌟

Thank you to Smartly.io, their flagship event ADVANCE, Smartly CEO Laura Desmond, and fellow panelists! Our own joined Stephanie Wittels-Wachs from our sister company Lemonada and Jae Goodman from Superbloom for a lively discussion about the intersection of culture, brand, authentic storytelling, and technology in our constantly shape-shifting world moderated by Joanna Coles from The Daily Beast.

As Gigi shared, “For us, it starts with story that is resonant and is something we feel we haven’t seen, we haven’t heard, and that we want to tell.”

NONNAS brought us to the Emmys, but what we’ll remember most is being back together! 🍝 Nights like these remind us that one of the greatest joys in making a movie is in the people who become your family along the way. Here’s to our family, our Nonnas, and the love that carries on from set to nights like these! 🤍

Thank you, Emmys / Television Academy for this honor. Huge congratulations to our incredible team who poured their hearts (and a lot of sauce) into bringing NONNAS to life. 🍝

We’re honored to be in the company of so many talented fellow nominees and incredible stories. What an inspiring group to stand alongside this weekend! ❤️

Our TIFF Watchlist this year spans fearless debuts and master storytellers. From Maude Apatow’s Poetic License to new work from Trier, Linklater, del Toro, Zhao, Safdie, Gavras, and Cianfrance.

We are excited to celebrate these films in Toronto, all stories that remind us why cinema is still one of the most powerful ways to connect us 🎬

These films by women directors aren’t just stories — they’re turning points. Intimate, audacious, unforgettable, they’ve redefined what cinema can be.

Telluride Film Festival has long been one of the places where this kind of work is championed — honoring Jane Campion with a Silver Medallion, showcasing Céline Sciamma's Portrait of a Lady on Fire, celebrating Saoirse Ronan with a tribute last year, and now screening Rebecca Zlotowski’s A Private Life.

Here's a canon of films we love that continue to inspire us — and the kind of fearless storytelling we champion every day.

From Tokyo’s sushi temples to butter-soaked ambition, from food-truck redemption arcs to darkly comic tasting menus—cinema has long used kitchens as stages for joy, obsession, and transformation. This year, we add our own dish to the table with Nonnas (2025): a story about food as memory, legacy, and love. Because sometimes the best stories aren’t just told - they’re served! And yes, Ratatouille made the list. Great cinema doesn’t mind if the chef just happens to be the cutest rat in a chef hat of all time 🐭🌟
