koumpouno (koom-poo-no) is a Toronto-based film and television company that embraces discomfort.
Founded by Amanda Pileggi, koumpouno blends over a decade of experience in creative development, production, business affairs, and people management. Our current slate includes features and series that sit in the space between absurd and grounded, funny and bleak, and precise and strange. Our work leans into contradiction, emotional friction, and the quiet tensions that shape our lives.
We support creators who take distinct narrative swings, blend genres, and challenge conventions. We like a weird pitch, a real laugh, and collaborators with integrity.
All of this is grounded in operational excellence.
Chic and competent, we are pathological problem-solvers wearing our heart on our sleeves while building whipsmart business models around art and entertainment.
Named after koumpounophobia (the fear of buttons).
