About Us

 

Our company was created in 2008 in New York. Its founder, Lesya Kalynska, is an award-winning director, writer, and producer. Born and raised in Kyiv, Ukraine, Kalynska currently lives and works in New York City. She received her MFA in film directing and writing from the Department of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts.

The objective of Pomegranate Studios is to combine the best achievements of American and European cinema to produce narrative films, documentaries and serialized content that combine elements from various cultures.

We have produced projects in the United States that have involved talent from Europe, both in front and behind the camera. We have established international partnerships and worked in co-productions to fund and organize film shoots in Eastern Europe.

In documentary production we focus on a wide range of topics about the countries from the former Soviet Union. Our films highlight the pursuit of these countries to build a democratic society. We specialize in filming hostile environments and bringing dramatic stories from this part of the world to share with western audiences.

Our most recent project “A RISING FURY” about the war in Ukraine held its World Premiere at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival.

Our team wishes to thank FINPORT TECHNOLOGIES: its founders and collective of specialists for supporting Pomegranate Studios and creating this website.
