An independent film production company led by Black women, developing and producing narrative films rooted in culture, character, and care.
We approach filmmaking as an intentional act of preservation.
At 22nd & Story, we develop character-led narratives grounded in lived experience, cultural memory, and emotional precision. Our process begins in development shaping story with clarity and restraint and continues through production with small, focused crews that prioritize care over scale.
We believe impact is not created through volume, but through specificity.
Each project is built to leave a mark.
We collaborate with artists, brands, and cultural institutions seeking story-driven production rooted in intention and care.
Whether developing original narrative work or supporting commissioned projects, we approach every partnership with clarity, creative discipline, and respect for the story at hand.
Our process is collaborative and precise from early development through final delivery. We prioritize thoughtful pre-production, streamlined crews, and focused execution to ensure that each project is both emotionally resonant and technically sound.
We welcome partnerships aligned with narrative depth, cultural specificity, and long-term creative vision.
