Empowering and growing Scottish film talent

Cinora is a film production and distribution project that empowers and grows Scottish film talent by investing in original, artistic and creative short films. Cinora releases high-quality, visually led, original short films on YouTube, and uses its revenue streams to reinvest in creating short films.

Cinora films are original: fresh stories ready to be told now in a new and interesting way. Artistic: our films have a clear artistic vision, voice and craft that sets them apart. The form and content always work together. Creative: our films challenge the team to use new skills, learn new techniques and problem solve. Inspiring: our films should inspire other filmmakers and creatives to make something unique.
