Zsurlo Film Ltd.

Zsurló Film Ltd. is a documentary film production company that produces historic and contemporary subject non-fiction programming for broadcast and cable.

Zsurló Film Ltd. was founded by Zsuzsanna Gellér-Varga with the mission of making television documentaries in an entirely new way. Rather than using traditional crews, we work with "video journalists", i.e. one-person crews with small format professional digital cameras to shoot and report. This way we are mobile and unobtrusive and are able to capture stories that are intimate, personal and compelling. Even in traditional formats e.g. historic or portrait documentaries this method provides us with a wider access to our subjects and a dynamic way of filmmaking. In situations where it is required (e.g. traditional interviews) we also work with the usual 2-3 people crews.

In the last few years Zsurló Film Ltd. partnered with other production companies in producing feature length documentaries (see Filmography).
