A support center for creators that expands their creativity
We support independent creators by sending out to the world works carefully crafted by individual artists in a small atelier in a seaside town.
“Maki” is a creative space that supports individual artists

2) Subsidies for participation in international film festivals
3) Technical exchange through disclosure of production processes
