Productions

By co-producing with a range of international partners, we expand the reach of new film and TV productions – bringing the work of visionary directors to life for a wide audience.

We work with leading international production companies, equally at home as majority or minority co-producer. As well as standard co-production financing structures, Argonauts can act as the Greek distributor, investing against Greek rights.
