Documentary Co-Production & Local Production Services in Corsica

Pimento Prod is an independent production company based in Corsica, France, working on documentary projects and offering local production services for international teams shooting on the island.

We are currently developing documentary projects with an international outlook and are open to editorial discussions, partnerships, and co-production opportunities with broadcasters and producers interested in Corsica, Mediterranean territories, and European history.

Documentary Development & Co-Production

Pimento Prod is engaged in the development and production of documentary films and series, with a particular interest in history, culture, and human stories connected to place.

Our approach is rooted in careful research, strong narrative structure, and a cinematic visual language. We work closely with authors, directors, historians, and creative partners, and we are keen to exchange ideas with international broadcasters and production companies at an early stage of development.

Our documentary interests include:

• Historical and cultural narratives

• Island territories and identity

• Cross-border European stories

• Character-driven and investigative formats

We are at an active stage of development and welcome dialogue with broadcasters and co-producers looking to explore new subjects or territories.
