Speculative stories with something to say
Closed·Posted Jun 3, 2026
Genre projects that use their premise to explore something real. We are not looking for pure spectacle — we want stories where the speculative element is in service of a human truth. Think Arrival, not Transformers.

What we look for
The production plan matters here. If your script requires $50M in VFX, we need to see a realistic path to that budget. But if you have written a contained sci-fi that can be made for under $5M, that is exactly what excites us.
