Documentary film house. Real proof. One team.

ALN is a documentary film house based in Poznań. Our films have reached over 20 million views, aired on TVP and EWTN, and toured 12 cities in a national theatrical run. We handle strategy, cinematography, and the web home the film lives on — all under one editorial roof. That full team travels to Dąbrowa Górnicza for every project.

What you get.

the main film

Documentary feature or short

A finished documentary built around a real story — research, interviews, observational filming, archive, and a graded master ready for screening, broadcast, or your own platform.

PL · DE · EN

Multilingual master + cutdowns

The film delivered with separate language stems and short cutdowns for press, partners, and social — the language plan locked before the shoot, never bolted on afterward.

perpetual

Library-grade archive

Raw interviews, ProRes masters, transcripts, and a clear naming convention handed over so the material outlives the campaign and stays usable for years.

§ V / VII

The same production process, everywhere.

  1. 01

    Brief

    A structured brief defines audience, scope, language plan, and the one decision the film must move — most of it resolved before we travel.

  2. 02

    Plan

    Schedule, crew, access, and the travel block are locked together, so the days on the ground are spent shooting, not improvising.

  3. 03

    Shoot

    A lean crew, controlled light, and clean sound — with production notes that keep the edit fast once we are back in the room.

  4. 04

    Deliver

    Review links, masters, cutdowns, captions, and an archive handoff — delivered on a shared drive with a naming convention you own and can reuse.

§ VI / VII

Poznań-based. We travel to you.

We are Poznań-based and travel to Dąbrowa Górnicza for every project. Dąbrowa Górnicza is in the eastern GZM, roughly four and a half hours from Poznań, adjacent to Sosnowiec. The city is home to one of the largest steel mills still operating in Poland — ArcelorMittal's Dąbrowa site — which provides rare heavy-industrial filming opportunities. Like all GZM cities it is always planned as part of a multi-stop Silesian block.

§ VII / VII
01Is filming inside an operational steel mill feasible for a documentary brief?

Potentially, with significant advance work. Industrial sites at this scale have strict media and safety protocols, and access depends on the company's communications team and the nature of the brief. We research this early and flag it clearly — it is not a standard location booking.

02How long does a documentary film take from brief to delivery?

It depends on scope, but a focused documentary typically runs eight to sixteen weeks: brief and research, a planned shoot block, then edit with two structured feedback rounds. Multi-location or archive-heavy films take longer; we set a realistic lock date in pre-production and hold it.

03Who owns the footage and the final film?

You do. On delivery you receive the masters, the cutdowns, and the archive files outright, with a naming convention you can reuse. We keep a backup for safety, but the work and its rights are yours — there is no licensing trap.
