Welcome to Aria Starlight pictures.

We are an independent film production company based in Plymouth, Devon.

What type of stories do we tell?

At Aria Starlight Pictures, we love all genres of film, and are inspired by stories which excite the emotions, lift the soul, celebrate connection and compassion, and explore the depth and breadth of this terrible and wonderful species we humans are.

We are particularly excited by magical realism - stories set in our own world which have a touch of something mysterious, unexpected, perhaps unexplained. This is a great way to explore our species through a stranger's eyes.

We also like to create emotional touchstone moments for our audiences, so both our comedies and dramas always seek ways to stir the impulse to laugh, cry and cheer.

Our mission statement: who we are, and our ‘Why’.

Our mission is to celebrate and practice the ancient art of storytelling through moving images, sounds and music, to lift the soul and challenge the mind. We aim to do this through creative collaboration across the crafts and disciplines of filmmaking, drawing the best from those who work with us. This happens when we build a supportive working environment which respects and celebrates everyone’s creative input.

Why? Simply because telling stories is the best way to help us to understand ourselves as humans, and if we understand ourselves, perhaps we can live in better harmony with each other and with the world we're privileged to inhabit.

Our slate

We are currently unable to take unsolicited screenplays, as our slate is full.

We are happy, however, to connect with you as fellow creatives if you would like to chat in general terms about your plans or discuss future collaborations. See our Contact page for details of how to get in touch.
