Candid Broad Productions and 222 Pictures have signed a transatlantic multi-picture co-pro deal.
Candid Broads Productions is a female-pioneering prod-co based in London and founded by Oriane Pick while 222 pictures is led by creative producer Sean Patrick Burke and executive producer Tiffany Burke.
The first project out of the gate is Mena Suvari starrer “Anatomy of the Sun,” a psychological thriller which also features Antoine Olivier Pilon. Written and directed by Steven Richter, the film stars Pilon as a music producer haunted by visions of his dead sister while Suvari plays his mother.
“222 Pictures has always prided itself on the collaborators we choose to work with. We are ecstatic about the opportunity to align visions with Candid Broads Productions and excited about years of amazing stories being told working with tremendous actors and filmmakers around the world,” said Sean Patrick Burke and Tiffany Burke.

Candid Broads Productions was launched in 2020 with a mission to empower female voices behind and in front of the camera. The company, also comprised of development producer Anaïs Ferrato, recently embarked on a mentoring program with U.K. charity The Girls’ Network.
“We are working in an industry that talks about change, romanticises change and yet, behind the scenes, we are still seeing the same strings being pulled, the same voices being prioritized,” said Pick. “Candid Broads, amongst the other incredible pioneering female outfits with whom we are proud to associate, is seeking to facilitate opportunities for all women to have their stories told, with the production support that will open the doors to the spaces in which they can be heard.”
