About Dovecote Pictures
Dovecote Pictures is founded by producer Lisa Leach to develop bold, character-driven film and television with global reach.
Working at the intersection of genre and social realism, the company is drawn to stories that interrogate identity, power, and the systems that shape our lives — often centering perspectives that have historically been overlooked.
Dovecote supports filmmakers in creating work that is both emotionally grounded and thematically ambitious.
We are currently developing a slate of feature film and television projects.
