So I got to work. I gathered up all my years of experience as a studio buyer and global sales agent, all the tried and true strategies I know work, and started making it accessible to everyone.

THEY SAY 'IT'S WHO YOU KNOW.' WELL, MEET TANIA SARRA!
Making our first feature was hard enough. But, getting our film seen by industry professionals and distributors, that seemed impossible. Add to that, grasping a greater understanding of exactly how the business side of the film industry works felt like a daunting task for creatives like ourselves. Then we were introduced to Hot Sauce, and can say, without any hesitation, if there’s someone in this industry who filmmakers and producers need to know, it’s Tania Sarra! Tania offers a vast amount of knowledge, key industry resources and fully engaged participation (not to mention, patience) to her clients. Tania will fight for your film…and you’ll be happy to have her in your corner.
