SONDER PICTURES is an independent production company & soon to be nonprofit founded in 2025 by best friends Amy Nuñez and Gracie Flores. At its core, SONDER is fiercely indie, anti-establishment, and DIY—born out of a desire to disrupt traditional pathways into the film industry that often privilege experience and connections over original storytelling and creative voice.

​

As a volunteer-run and community-based organization, SONDER PICTURES centers mutual aid, collective growth, and accessibility in everything we do.

 

At the core of this vision is our annual Writers’ Incubator, an intensive program that supports filmmakers from story development through crowdfunding and beyond. Designed to foster a cycle of shared learning and creative exchange, the Incubator builds connections not only among participating artists, but also across every stage of the filmmaking process. Whether within the program or in production, we are committed to creating a sustainable creative ecosystem rooted in care, collaboration, and radical support.
