A-FP Premium

Anarcho-Film Productions [A-FP] was formed in August 2009, for the purposes of developing, producing and distributing high quality independent feature films and media content, using the anarcho-filmmaking strategies we developed to take advantage of the Digital Revolution.

A-FP took its international bow at the Cannes Market in May 2015, where our first film, The Great British Mortgage Swindle [TGBMS], was launched. The hard-hitting feature went on to become one of the highest rated British documentaries on Amazon Prime, following a limited UK theatrical release. In 2025, A-FP will release Kim Bodnia's long-awaited English language feature film debut, Nefarious.

In the wake of the US sub-prime mortgage crisis, the UK housing market collapsed, the reality of which was much more shocking that the public ever imagined.

Insolvent banks were lending money they didn't have; mortgage fraud had been common practice for decades; conveyancing solicitors were giving illegal advice; whilst the police were violently enforcing the selective application of the law.

Then, when all seemed lost, a call to action rallied thousands from all over Britain, in support of the mavericks who took on the might of the banks, armed with nothing except the facts.

With the invaluable assistance of award-winning design sales and marketing company, Coffee & Cigarettes, TGBMS was finally completed in October 2018 and was released in the UK on 10/11/2018.

The film was distributed at Savoy, Odeon and Vue cinemas via our Cinema-on-Demand model, as well as being released on DVD and all the major digital platforms by A-FP and UK distributor, 101 Films.

After gaining more than two hundred 5 star reviews, The Great British Mortgage Swindle was one of the the highest rated independent British films released on Amazon.co.uk in 2019.

After twenty years of marriage, Europe’s #1 quality coke importer, Michael Elkiar (Kim Bodnia), is having marriage problems. When his eighteen year old son, Marcus, leaves for university, his wife Tonia (Alwein Tulner) questions whether to stay in the relationship.

Struggling with a mid-life crisis, Elkiar’s feeling of worthlessness are magnified by a burgeoning social drug habit. When faced with losing everything he cherishes, he reluctantly agrees to retire from ‘the business’ to save his marriage. But getting out of the business is easier said than done, especially when you’re the boss.

Dope-dealing outlaws, Lez & Billy (Conor Woodman & Spek), are the endearingly vulnerable, lovable rogues who embark on a psychedelic adventure that sees their lives spiral dangerously out of control, as they are consumed by the dog-eat-dog world of international cocaine smuggling.

In a fast-moving, exciting climax imbued with dramatic irony and the inevitability of consequence, the shades of grey between good and evil are positively enlightened by the transcendental nature of true friendship and romantic tragedy.

"Written and directed by Michael O’Bernicia (Roadkill, The Good Cop), ‘Nefarious’ is a road movie/thriller feature that stars Kim Bodnia alongside newcomers, Conor Woodman, Spek, Sharon Percy and others. The film was actually shot in 2005 and has been remastered to HD for its long-awaited release in 2024/25.

A fast-moving, funny yet ultimately tragic European road movie about two hedonistic outlaws and their quest to open up a coffeeshop in Amsterdam, ‘Nefarious’ is a whole lot of fun. Michael O’Bernicia knows how to infuse a sense of demented fun into this tale as he sets about to create a compelling story that enthralls as well as entertains... Danish legend Kim Bodnia is a towering persona here and the newcomers Conor Woodman, Spek, Sharon Percy and Guy Porritt are also great in their own right. The cast does a good job with what they are given and they manage to elevate the script by infusing their characters with as much earnestness as possible.

Visually speaking, the film is a treat to us all. The cinematography is crisp and the grainy footage from 2005 actually helps the story develop better, giving it a retro feel and a distinctly unique look. The cinematographer has done a fantastic job ensuring that the tense moments look and feel as real as possible and those tense, unnerving moments of interaction between characters look as energised and unpredictable as possible. Also, from costumes to set design, the production looks highly polished in all its aspects. With a seemingly low budget, it is fascinating to see how the production team managed to make the film look so incredibly good.

Full of twists and turns, ‘Nefarious’ manages to soar due to Michael O’Bernicia’s script and direction. Thrillers are always hard to pull off from a thematic and emotional standpoint but the film here manages to do it regardless. Although it doesn’t break the genre mould in sense of originality and complexity, ‘Nefarious’ is good enough to stand on its own two feet. Well shot and well acted, the film is director Michael O’Bernicia’s first and provides him with some serious cred on his resume for his next project. We hope to see much more of O’Bernicia in the future and pray that he gets his hands on a major Hollywood production a lot sooner than later."

The Three Faced Terrorist is hard hitting documentary about the Christchurch mosque shootings, which allegedly took place on the 15th of March 2019 and led to a series of government acts which severely curtailed the unalienable rights that were previously guaranteed by the New Zealand constitution.

Within days of the seemingly horrifying series of events that took place at Al Noor Mosque and Linwood Islamic Centre in Christchurch Jacinda Ardern's government had criminalized every weapon that was featured in a purported Facebook livestream of the attacks, as well passing a statute which censored the video and other related content, creating a maximum prison sentence for Kiwi citizens of ten years in prison just for watching it in the privacy of their own homes.

Spring 2025 sees the launch of A-FP Media Group's brand new distribution platform, A-FP PREMIUM, which aims to provide producers and film lovers alike an experience which simply wasn't possible until now.

Twenty years ago, the entire film industry was nervously anticipating the devastating effect that the Digital Revolution would go on to have upon the ability of producers to raise production finance, which in 2005 was still almost entirely dependent upon projected DVD revenues and distribution pre-sales.

When the DVD market crumbled to dust at the end of that decade, it became ten times harder to get a film made, to make a profit or break even, in the fortunate event a movie did find distribution, than it was before free platforms like YouTube killed the Home Video star.

Nevertheless, A-FP PREMIUM emerged from that revolution as a Virtual Film Studio, which specialises in the development, production, sales, distribution and marketing of critically-acclaimed, award-winning content by variously censored, dissident and underground voices.

We are already being offered high quality completed films from all over the world, which A-FP has the capability to distribute worldwide via A-FP Distribution on VOD, SVOD, DVD and in selected cinemas, in addition we offer producers something they all need - a realistic and fair way to break even and return a net profit, without getting ripped off with inflated costs, unjustified distribution fees and a percentage split that doesn't benefit the producer.
