History
Sarke Studio LLC was established in the country of Georgia back in 1998 as an advertising agency. Since its inception, Sarke Studio has experienced tremendous growth. By 2004 it became an industry powerhouse with over 300 employees and the country’s largest network of major clients. From local businesses to the biggest international brands – even Georgia’s leading political parties – Sarke built relationships with them all. In 2008, with over 400 commercials produced and still counting, Sarke Studio began to co-produce local short and full-length feature films, all of which were successful at the local box-office.
In 2011, Sarke Studio produced its first English language feature – a high concept genre film called 247°F. The story is about a group of friends who get trapped in a sauna that keeps getting hotter and hotter. 247°F was picked up and is distributed by Anchor Bay Entertainment.
Today And Beyond
Most recently, in November 2013, Sarke Studio successfully completed multimillion dollar production service for the French Film companies La Petite Reine and Search Production on the feature film The Search – directed by the Oscar-winning director of "The Artist", Michel Hazanavicius, starring Annette Bening and Bérénice Bejo.
Sarke Studio LLC has an exciting slate of three high concept, English language, genre features in development for 2014. All these feature films are fully funded by Georgian Film Investment Group (GFIG) LLC. GFIG is a private investment fund established in 2012. Its purpose is to co-invest in specific film and infrastructural projects. It is dedicated to improving Georgia as a hot-spot for international filmmaking services. GFIG is working with the Government of Georgia on numerous Tax Incentive programs.
