Slowboat Films was founded in 1999 with a concrete goal in mind:
It was our aim to become a self-sufficient film production company that could operate entirely independently and therefore create the basis for raw, unpolished and personal cinema.
We do not follow trends, financial interests or audience expectations and we see ourselves in stark contrast to an age of watered-down and assimilated so-called independent cinema.
Over the past 6 years we've managed to acquire the technological means and talent to create films that are self-determined, independent, broadcast quality, yet deliberately raw.
Be it works of fiction, documentaries or music videos; we believe the idiosyncratic Slowboat style to be apparent in all our work.
If you like it safe, our films are not for you...if you like to venture into unsafe waters, consider yourself more than welcome to come on board and check out our work.
