Rain Reign

Feature Film

Twelve-year-old Rose has always found comfort in rules. The same route to school, the same seat at the table, her beloved dog Rain sleeping at the foot of her bed every night. But when a storm tears through her town and Rain disappears, Rose realizes there is no rule for this moment. Escaping the shadow of her volatile father, she ventures into an unfamiliar world with her uncle by her side to bring Rain home, discovering along the way that what she's always known about her life may not be the whole story. A quiet journey about love, loss, and learning to trust yourself when the world feels uncertain.

Adapted from the novel by Newbery Honor author Ann M. Martin.

Third Culture Kids

TV Series · Created by Erika Burke Rossa & Alice Kuo Shippee

Taipei, Taiwan, 1985. Before cell phones. Before the internet. A misfit crew of expat teens come of age in the freewheeling bubble of Taipei International School, where the local rules don't apply. Through family crisis, underage drinking, late-night lip-sync battles, and the wild freedoms of a city operating between East and West, they find that "home" is the deep and unlikely connections they forge with each other.

Until one of their classmates is murdered, and those connections begin to unravel, forcing them to see their world and each other through a very different lens. Inspired by true events.

A story about identity, privilege, and the consequences of a life that seemed to have none.

Reaper's Lake

TV Series · Created by Mia Bijou Rossa

The summer after senior year. Best friends Blake and Arden are making the most of their last months together. When a kid from school disappears without a trace and more outcast teens begin to vanish from Peters Lake, Illinois, they start asking questions their small town would rather leave unanswered.

What begins as a missing-persons mystery unravels into something far darker: a cult-like coven promising utopia for society's outcasts, a supernatural plague spreading through the town, and a growing rift between the two friends as Arden is drawn toward the coven's promises.

A supernatural thriller about belonging, belief, and what we'll sacrifice to feel like we matter.
