Seeing Gangsters Tea on the big screen as an official selection at the was a massive milestone for Mad Doc Pictures, but hearing what this moment meant to the crew was the real win.

It’s not just about the final product - it’s about the team we are building along the way.

Film festivals give you a reality check.
You see where your work sits, you see what other people are doing, and you figure out what you want to push harder on.

Seeing Gangsters Tea on the L***a screen was an honour.
People watched it and had thoughts. That’s the whole point.

The conversations were the best part.
Filmmakers figuring things out in their own way, sharing what’s working and what’s not. It’s good to hear it straight from people actually doing the thing.

Thanks to for putting our film up and creating a space that feels accessible.

If you were at the fest this year - what was your biggest takeaway?

From the page 📄 to the frame 🎥.
There is nothing quite like seeing black and white text transform into a living, breathing scene. Here is a look at how we translated the "Pick Up" scene in Gangsters Tea. Notice how the lighting adds the subtext that the script implies.
What’s your favorite part of the script-to-screen process?

P.S. Watch Ivory and Boots come to life in Gangsters Tea as an official selection for the SA Indie Film Fest!

It's a tough pill to swallow: the joy of cinema is fading. Streaming services are taking over distribution and AI movies are making their entrance. This is a big challenge to our Road to the Million Dollar Movie project.

We are literally trying to figure out the game plan as we go. If the distribution model is broken, how do we get our movie seen?

When the heat is on, the spirit burns through.

In Grilled Cheese, a hopeless chef seeks a final ending, but when every attempt fails he stumbles upon an unexpected recipe for healing.

Through sharp dialogue, layered performances, and poignant symbolism, Grilled Cheese is more than just a film — it’s a reminder that sometimes, you need to get grilled for everything to come together.

🍞🔥 Heartfelt. Human. Heated.
