Food, farming and hospitality
Stories rooted in land, food and hospitality.
Documentary and commissioned films and videos for farms, food producers, hospitality businesses and organisations working with land and food.
Old Mill Pictures
Our recent documentary work follows regenerative farms and permaculture projects around Ireland, meeting the people who grow food, work the land and pass practical knowledge on.
Alongside it is commissioned work for an international thoroughbred stud, hotel groups, restaurants and grocery retail. We shape each production around what makes the people, process and place worth seeing.
Current work includes a commissioned film series for Organic Growers of Ireland. OGI’s peer-to-peer knowledge-exchange programme is funded by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
