Jiro greenlights
What Does greenlight mean?
We seek out projects that we believe are not just winners, conceptually but money-makers with a clear, marketable path to distribution and visibility.
We put our money into these projects first, inspiring the confidence of others to follow suit.
Together with our partners, we have the ability to fully finance films where we see a path to distribution.
