Argot Pictures is a distribution
company for independent films. We work with filmmakers to set up limited
engagement theatrical releases at theaters around the country. Argot
Pictures believes that filmmakers should be actively involved in the
promotion and distribution of their work. We look to step outside the
traditional way that films are released theatrically and work to set
up discreet, low cost, limited engagements that are designed to generate
publicity, box office and increase the value of their films for television
and DVD sales. We believe strongly in using the internet and viral marketing
techniques to connect with the audiences and in some cases to sell films
directly to the public. |

FIRE UNDER THE SNOWDirected by Makoto Sasa
Arrested by the Chinese Communist Army in 1959, Palden Gyatso, a Tibetan Buddhist Monk, spent 33 years in prisons and labor camps for the “crime” of peaceful demonstration. Tortured, starved and sentenced to hard labor, he watched his nation and culture destroyed, his teachers, friends and family displaced, jailed or killed. Despite this, he remains unbroken, keeping the flame of his spirit ablaze.
