Over the last few years Loki Films has been lauded by the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Der Spiegal, Le Figaro, Variety, The Los Angeles Times and numerous international publications for its fair, balanced and bias-free approach to delicate subject matter. The co-owners have been profiled in numerous international magazines and television programs, from France to Australia for their dedication to the truth and for expertise in verite filmmaking, which allows the subjects to speak for themselves.

Loki Films has taken on a vivid array of subjects that include the rise of Christian Fundamentalism in the United States (“Jesus Camp”), inner-city children and lack of educational opportunities for them (“The Boys of Baraka”) the inner workings of Scientology, the plight of criminally insane, and the labyrinth that is the criminal justice system in New York City. They have, together and individually, produced and directed documentary projects for A&E, the CBS Television Network, The Discovery Channel, VH1, Channel Four and the BBC in the UK, and other international networks.
