Welcome to D Street Café

Welcome everyone and thanks for dropping by the Café! We D Streeter’s are having a lot of fun building our growing company and we’d like to let you in on some of our activities along the way. At the D Street café you’ll be able to have some of the same experiences you would at a not so virtual café, only you won’t be able to down a cup of Joe or your favorite lemon bar. Not to worry, we’ll be serving up other hot goodies that should excite even the best Barista’s. Perhaps you’d like to exchange ideas about the film industry or find out how things get done “In the Biz.” We’ll even take some of the mystery out of what the role of a producer. Does anyone really know? Or how about sharing comments about that specialty film you saw last night? Specialty is just a fancy industry way of saying indie or international film. See how much you’re learning already. And what would a media company like D Street be if we didn’t attend some of the most amazing film festivals and markets? We do and will continue to have a strong presence at some of the biggest and most glamorous ones from around the globe. Our favorite being that annual event that takes place on the French Riviera every May!

D Street Café is a one stop shop to resources and information you might not find at other companies in our competitive space. Our hope is that you keep coming back for more. We always will keep it interesting.


Sincerely,

Dexter Davis
Founder/CEO

International: the New Foreign

When D Street decided to get involved in the distribution of foreign language films we thought about shaking things up a bit. We wanted to reinvent the genre as a whole and help these wonderful films reach a broader audience in the US.  First, we needed to drop the word foreign and replace it with a more user friendly word like international. Our belief is that we are more alike than not alike and foreign makes us sound just so alien to one another. The stories are coming from different places but human condition is the same everywhere. So we enlisted a few friends of D Street’s to talk about their favorite international film and these little vignettes are the result of that conversation.
