• onzer films was founded in spring 2026 with the aim of supporting and distributing moving image works that demonstrate formal intentionality and resist narrative conventions, with artistic and collaborative visions. We are interested in films and people that are interrogative yet generous, and committed in their social and political intent.

    onzer works with filmmakers and teams on considered strategies to release and distribute work at festivals and beyond. We welcome films of any duration. If you’re interested in working with us, please send details of your film, including a screener link (at minimum a rough cut near picture lock), synopsis and essential info, to hello@onzerfilms.com.

    Please note that we work with a very limited number of titles. We prefer to come on board no later than the point of your premiere.

  • We are also available for project and distribution consultations—whether you need support with your festival strategy, editorial feedback, or other guidance—as well as collaborations on events and programmes. Feel free to get in touch with details about your project or query, and we will do our best to work with you within your means.

    Testimonials

    “Throughout my development sessions for the Writing Hub [Cannes Cinéma de Demain], Sanne evaluated my drafts with careful consideration, and shared thoughtful notes and critiques. Her willingness to co-explore the story’s goals and emotional beats left me with a reignited excitement and a determined approach to my writing.” - Gulzar

    “The consultancy with onzer was exactly what I wanted it to be. Sanne provided me with a very substantial and honest opinion on my film and its chances within the festival circuit. All of this was new to me, so it felt comforting to be able to fall back on her expertise.” - Flo

onzer : archaic Dutch, meaning ‘ours’
