Drifter Films LLC, Inc was founded in 2016. The company was formed with the intention of producing full-length motion pictures based on original stories for the screen. Drifter Films is based in New York City and was started by Paul Le Mos who plans to find financing, secure rights, and produce independent feature films. Drifter’s interest goes beyond film. Television is an area where the company will produce and own the rights to original ideas, along with producing plays for the stage. The overall attraction to independent movies is stronger than ever, and an audience will always come out and support a story well told, whether they see on the big screen or decide to stay home and watch it on the small screen. Through movie theaters, television, streaming, and the internet, good film-making will always be welcome. These days, the opportunity to showcase a well-told story is global. Drifter Films looks forward to the future of independent films and hopes to stake a claim to an audience that sits waiting, popcorn in hand, for the next great film to arrive.
