“Alex Helmer demonstrates a clear and compelling creative voice in what marks the early stages of a very promising career”

What to Expect
While At The Helm Productions aims to be more than meets the eye, a set of core ideals defines the brand and is reflected throughout our work.
❋ ComedyWe make funny movies. Why? Because nothing in the world hits harder than giving people something to smile for.
❋ HeartWhile comedy is rooted in pain - and there’s plenty of it in our work - each story is anchored by a beating heart that ultimately exudes a sense of hope.
❋ StyleWe want to tell stories using classic cinematic techniques, giving our projects a timeless and expansive feel rooted in the language of cinema’s greats.
❋ FamilyThere’s a reason why we have so many names that carry over from project to project. We’re not only endlessly devoted to making the most entertaining stories possible, but we firmly believe that best movies are the ones you make with people you love.
I want to live making movies and I want do die making movies - Alex Helmer

"Helmer already knows what kind of filmmaker he aspires to be, which is a testament to his maturity"

"Helmer promised there would be more questions asked than answers in the movie, and he was right. It is thought-provoking, and stays with you. As my friend Carles Fabregat reminded me as we talked about the movie over coffee at the Ibiza yacht club, 'Remember Pedro Almodovar, the Spanish cult movie director, made his first feature film on a very low budget and while the film had its critics, it ended up setting the stage for Almodovar’s future as a sought-after filmmaker.' Helmer could well be on the same path"
