ABOUT

Our educational and community-based initiatives are committed to making filmmaking affordable and accessible to all. Antigravity’s first feature film, DÌDI (弟弟), written and directed by Academy Award nominee Sean Wang, premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, winning the Audience Award and Special Jury Award for Best Ensemble (US Dramatic). Acquired by Focus Features, the film was released this July to rave reviews and achieved a 100% Audience Score. In TV, the company currently has the comedy series, SMUGGLERS, in development at FX Networks in collaboration with This American Life with Joanna Calo (THE BEAR) showrunning.
CAPE is the premier non-profit organization creating opportunities and driving change for Asian and Pacific Islander (API) success in Hollywood. For over 32 years, CAPE has fought for API representation in film and television, because what we watch on our screens should reflect the world in which we live and project a better one. CAPE advances representation for APIs in Hollywood through three main verticals: (1) nurturing and engaging creative talent and executive leadership; (2) providing cultural script consulting and talent referrals through the CAPE Database; and (3) championing projects for critical box office and streaming success.
