Corner Bar Pictures

Corner Bar Pictures is an independent production company focused on all project types from animation to feature-length films. The emphasis is on projects where CBP is involved very early - typically at the writing phase - and extends through post-production. Corner Bar Pictures was founded in Summit, NJ in 2013 by Marina Donahue; their debut release, All In Time, won 12 festival awards, prior to its release, on the film festival circuit. Corner Bar Pictures currently has several projects in production: 'Native', a short film shot in Ireland starring Patrick Bergin; 'The Velvet Underground Played at my High School', an animated documentary AbOUT the first time the Velvet's played in public; and 'Indianapolis', based on a Sam Shepard short story starring Bill Pullman and Gabourey Sidibe. The 5-part web series 'Drama: The Web Series' (starring Rachel Donahue) can be found on YouTube and is being ReWorked into a short film for festival submissions. Their next full-length feature, 'For The Good of the Child', starring Rachel Donahue, will be shot entirely in Ireland, with an anticipated release date of 2018. Set in Limerick in 1968, this gritty drama draws from Ireland’s own dark past to tell the story of Jess, an American girl thrust into Ireland during the infamous days of Industrial Schools. When a sadistic Cruelty Man takes aim at the children of a Traveler family whom she has befriended, Jess takes matters into her own hands to recover the children…and unwittingly finds herself in a dangerous underground child trafficking ring.
