The Story of Tommy & Millie Productions
At Tommy & Millie Productions, our belief is in supporting socially beneficial film-making. The significant role these enterprises have played in our growth as an organisation is so profound that their key characters are reflected in our name.
Our inaugural film, “Tommy”, based on the children’s book by Darren Mort, “Tommy and Tiger Terry”, was produced in collaboration with the To Be Loved Network. This film depicted the distress of divorce and the loneliness children can experience in the divorce process.
In an ongoing partnership with To Be Loved, we will soon release a new film that follows “Millie” through her struggles with family separation and the challenges faced by a child during family breakdown.
If you have a film idea that questions societal norms and aims to deliver significant messages, reach out to Tommy & Millie Productions today.
