Music is the key – somehow that’s where we come from, but this is not the only focus……
Authentic, emotional movies documentaries, and series for TV – this is our aim. Sugar Town Film production GmbH & Co. Kg started in 2012 and our first project was the music documentary “The Potential of Noise- Conny Plank” about the famous German music producer. The film started in German cinemas on the 28th of September 2017.
Our newest project, “Don’t talk, do it! – She-Punks from 1977 until now” by Reto Caduff is a co-production with tell film, Zurich, and had its premiere in Hof on the 25th of October.
More and more fiction and documentary projects are in development.
