Stink is looking for high concept stories for film & TV, with an edge and an international scope. We are looking for diverse and eclectic points of view, stories that confidentely challenge the usual genre definitions and are not ashamed of being unconventional. If your idea is “bonkers” or “out there” then it is probably a good fit for us. We gravitate towards the visual and visceral and are looking for escapism and imagination. Female-centric projects are strongly welcomed!
