Picture on the Wall Productions make compelling stories from around the world. Founded in 2007 by award-winning producer and director Zara Balfour, we started making short films and music videos and now produce documentaries and content.  

Working with Film London to produce critically acclaimed short films, we were selected for Berlin Film Festival, where we won the the Prix UIP for Best European Short Film. Our films have also screened at London Film Festival, European Film Awards, Sarajevo, Telluride and New York Film Festival, among others.  Our music video for artist Gravenhurst for Warp Records v Creative Review was selected for Cannes Lions.

Our current slate includes the multiple award-winning feature documentary, Children of the Snow Land, which is screening at festivals worldwide, being distributed to UK cinemas by Dartmouth Films, starting with a premiere at Curzon Soho cinema, and broadcast on the television channel Arte as well as numerous other TV channels worldwide. We have a passion for documentary and its ability to shine a light on society whilst still entertaining and engaging the audience.

Picture on the Wall Productions works with a diverse range of commissioners and clients to produce content for cinema, broadcast, brands and NGOs.  We also consult for agencies and emerging producers and as outreach producers on feature documentary films.
