FILM

In the tense aftermath of World War II, a team of international soldiers embarks on a covert mission, not just to hunt down fleeing Nazis, but to uncover the powerful allies helping them escape justice. Historical Fiction is a gripping political thriller in the vein of JFK, where every answer leads to deeper betrayal.

It’s Hot in Texas is a modern-day western with a comedic twist, as rival treasure hunters converge on a sleepy Texas town in a chaotic race to uncover long-lost Civil War gold. Loyalties shift, bullets fly, and tempers flare, because in this town, the heat isn’t just coming from the sun.

Kiss Me is a feminist revenge thriller set against the eerie beauty of coastal Maine. When a man brings his fiancée home for Valentine’s Day, a run-in with his ex, who happens to secretly be a witch, turns their romantic getaway into a twisted showdown of love, lies, and supernatural payback. Think Get Out meets Promising Young Woman... with hexes.

TV

Our Neighbors to the Left - A peace-loving suburban everyman has his quiet life upended when a bold, progressive lesbian couple moves in next door, sparking a culture clash packed with chaos, comedy, and unexpected connection. In the pilot, his free-spirited younger sister crashes into town and instantly bonds with his girlfriend, while his well-intentioned but disastrous attempt to invite old Navy buddy Pete Buttigieg to a local LGBTQ event backfires spectacularly. Just when things couldn’t get messier, a Truman Show-style twist reveals there’s something much bigger going on in the neighborhood. It’s a comedy about change, discomfort, and the weird ways we connect, whether we like it or not. Bonus: a built-in spin-off, Our Neighbors to the Right.

Touched - A charismatic clairvoyant fakes his death, only to return years later to help his ex, now an NYPD captain, solve cold cases… and maybe win her back, if his hidden past doesn’t catch up to him first.

Elsbeth meets High Potential, but with a supernatural edge and romantic undercurrent. Every case is a puzzle. Every clue, a risk. And every episode, a step toward redemption… or revelation.

Standalone mystery-of-the-week structure with slow-burn character arcs. A love story wrapped in a procedural.

there’s also a musical!

What happens when a jaded Jewish playwright from the Upper West Side teams up with an ambitious Muslim producer from the Islamic Kingdom of Shiram to put on a Broadway show? A miracle or a meltdown. Maybe both.

Jews: The Musical! - An unapologetically hilarious, surprisingly heartfelt exploration of identity, division, and the absurd ways we try (and fail) to understand each other. It’s a show about politics, race, religion, gender, and sexuality, but told through big musical numbers, biting satire, and a core belief that music, love, and laughter can connect even sworn enemies.

As their wildly different worlds collide over scripts, egos, bagels, and censorship, we get a front-row seat to the chaos of collaboration and the beauty of breaking barriers.

“Jews: The Musical!”

One playwright. One producer. One holy mess. Let the healing, and the harmonies, begin.

This Show Ain’t Gonna Be Very Kosher!

and Here’s a novel idea…

Title: The Mystery of Love

Genre: Fiction | Romance | Adventure

Tone: High-stakes intrigue meets heartfelt redemption — Romancing the Stone meets The Da Vinci Code and Indiana Jones, with a modern emotional twist.

A heartbroken novelist with a playboy reputation is drifting through life in glittering New York until a mysterious clue linked to Nazi gold thrusts him into an adventure straight out of one of his own stories. Suddenly, he’s dodging bullets, unraveling riddles, and confronting a shadowy network of neo-Nazis hellbent on finding a lost WWII-era treasure buried deep in American soil.

Sometimes, the greatest mystery isn’t the treasure… it’s the love you never saw coming.
