Paperback Pictures is a film production company dedicated to bringing remarkable stories to screen.

The name Paperback Pictures is an ode to the rich relationship shared by cinema and literature, but more broadly a recognition that every great film begins as a moving story.

It's a way of looking at the two art forms as the great Robert Bresson, who in his philosophical treatise, Notes on the Cinematograph framed the mission of both writer and filmmaker on the matter of brilliance.

the most ordinary word, when put into place, suddenly acquires brilliance. That is the brilliance with which your images must shine.

Paperback Pictures celebrates this brilliance through its journal, publication of original stories, and production of cinematic works (beginning fall 2024).

Paperback Pictures is edited by Nate Eckman.
