Corporate Philosophy and Profile

The Sakura Filmproduktion e.K. was established July 1st 2007 in Berlin. The corporate mission is the production of high-quality movies for mature audiences. Hereby solving the alleged contradiction between commercialization and artistry. A cornerstone of this quality is our own script development. In a medium term, we plan to establish our enterprise throughout Germany, but also operate as co-producer in international productions. We would like to do business with like-minded people, either in the production of movies or TV-projects. Besides our debut project, the multiple award winning short film Leben! - Touching Life, we finished our first feature-lenght movie INNENKIND which had its Market Premiere at the Marché du Film during the 2014 Film Festival in Cannes in May.  Please visit our Project Page for more information. 

Sakura Filmproduktion is also a reliable partner in the field of production services, with its commercial focal point on film finance, budgeting and the application of public film funds, as well as production accounting, e.g. as line producer, executive producer, production manager, or production accountant, as shown in the successful collaboration as production manager with macchiato pictures, producing the clip „Turquoise“ with the Ballhaus Climate Control  Initiative, working face to face with the famous cinematographer Michael Ballhaus, or as line producer in the production of the short film „Die Operation“ for the production company mafilm as well as other projects...Projects/Projects.htmlshapeimage_1_link_0
