How it works

From your idea to the big screen

Monmouth Films develops original movies, series and documentaries. Some of the best stories come from people who have never written a screenplay. If you have one, here is how to share it.

Your story could become a movie, series or documentary and reach audiences worldwide.

What to send us

  • A working title (optional).
  • The story in a few paragraphs: who it is about, what happens, and why it matters.
  • The format: feature film, series or documentary.
  • Anything real behind it: a place, an event or a community the story comes from.

You do not need a finished script. A clear, honest summary is the best place to start.
