People have been infatuated with the movies since the first frames flickered across a screen to amazed audiences -- nearly one-hundred and ten years ago. In those formative years all films were documentaries: simple setups like Fred Ott's Sneeze and The Lumière Brother's Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory. However simple these films may have been their impact was immense. In the case of the Lumière Brother's Train Arriving at the Station, frightened cinema virgins fled darkened theaters believing that the approaching locomotive would burst out of the screen and come careening into them.

Shortly before the turn of the century filmmakers like Georges Méliès started making movies that proved to be an effective tool of imaginative expression. It was Méliès that first joined two separate scenes together into one sequence. Since then the storytellers' new medium spread like wildfire.

More than a century has passed and filmmakers still manage to make people flee the theater mid movie, albeit for reasons of jaw-numbing stupidity. Nevertheless, year after year, movie-goers encounter films that impact, move and change them. We are still in love with the cinema.

Xolara is still in love with the cinema. It is the reason we do what we do. It is the reason we exist. We search out stories and scripts, and we create and tell our own. We are storytellers, and we are grateful to the pioneers and all those who followed, who brought the greatest medium into the world.

It is our love for the cinema that Xolara brings to you on each and every project we produce.
