Monkey Kingdom Productions is Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt. Created in 2004 as part of a pact to bring life to independent filmmaking, Monkey Kingdom Productions nods its head to Songoku, the Monkey King from Eastern mythology - a wily spirit with his own unique way of getting things done.
Monkey Kingdom Productions is dedicated to creating thought-provoking and boundary-breaking, quality productions that never pander to the lowest common denominator. We will forge ahead into innovative and exciting filmmaking territory. We promise to bring you intelligent and uncompromising films. We play outside of the box. We are Monkey Kingdom Productions.
We monkeys also believe that perseverance and determination added to passion and dedication equals success. But the most important thing in achieving your goals is to never waiver from your dreams and never take yourself too seriously. C'mon monkey, let's make a movie!
