About burgindie
about burgindie pictures
Kindled by the cosmic ambitions of our pioneer ancestors, our independent films seek that elusive flavor between religious myth and scientific discovery. Burgindie focuses on narratives that are thrilling, complex, and exploratory, blending lofty reveries and dark drama. We believe in finding hidden stories in the corners of a conventional chapel.
