Hello
For the love of angels
The Tiny Angel Productions Story
​
​
​
Meeting Yoseph Gettu for the first time through The Tiny Angel Company (more to be revealed here in due course) was the starting point for Tiny Angel Productions.
​​​
During a general conversation about life, Yoseph spoke about the large shopping complex he and his brother were planning to build in Addis Ababa. The complex included shops, restaurants, residential apartments... and a cinema.
​​​The discussion led to a chat about making animation films based on traditional Ethiopian folktales along with several other ideas (some already written down and characterised).
There was also talk of making a documentary about King Tewodros II and a documentary (and feature film) based on a true story from WWII, which took place in Africa in 1941.
​​​
The conversation ended with the statement, 'Wouldn't it be great to see films that we produced running in the cinema you built?'
​​​​
And so Tiny Angel Productions was born.
​​​​​
The first documentary chosen for development was the WWII survival story.
​​​
On reflection, this was not the easiest place to start. What followed were years of

Births, marriages, deaths, covid - everything happened along the way following that first (half-joking) decision to start a production company.
But here we are, many years later, ready to fly and excited to embark on the next stage with you.
