Mamamki* Productions - MAMAKI FILM creates documentaries that explore psychology, personal and spiritual growth, ancient and modern mindfulness practices, and human relationships in a rapidly evolving, multicultural world.

While the name "Mamaki" has its roots in Buddhism, we don't adhere to any one spiritual or philosophical tradition.

Our project takes a postmodern approach to both filmmaking and psychology. Rather than aiming to depict an objective reality, we focus on the diversity of human experiences, subjective worlds, and the connections between them. For us, it's important to create a space for self-reflection, believing that each person walks a unique path, meeting their own teachers and learning their own lessons.

We enjoy capturing deeply personal moments of interaction between a psychologist and their client on screen, inviting viewers to reconsider the boundaries between the personal and the public, the inner and the collective.

We love to experiment with form, pushing the boundaries of genre, while also appreciating the timeless art of classical documentary filmmaking. Our postmodernism isn't about rejecting traditions, but rather engaging in a dialogue with them.

In our films, honesty isn't about simply recording reality but staying true to the essence of what we want to express—the core message that resonates through our stories.

Often, our films reflect ourselves as well, showing us in moments of emotional search and discovery. This is more than breaking the fourth wall; it's an invitation to realize that cinema is a "process of self-awareness," where awareness itself becomes a form of art. The MAMAKI FILM team consists of passionate and creative professionals.

Over more than ten years, we've produced over 80 films about psychology masters and their methods. We also film retreats, workshops, and individual sessions for clients, staying true to our mission of exploring the depths of the human experience.

About projects

*In the tantric tradition of Buddhism, Mamaki is the female image of the wisdom of equanimity, inherent in the mind of the Buddha. 
Equanimity does not mean that everything has been reduced to a dreary sameness. Mamaki’s is not a bleached-out world in which you cannot distinguish one thing from another. But it does mean that her attention is focused on what is common to all human beings, all life. We can understand this on different levels. On the highest level, Mamaki vividly experiences the emptiness of all phenomena. On a more everyday level it means that she is aware of the commonality of experience of living beings. In Buddhist practice, this wisdom manifests itself in the ability to perceive oneself and all others as equal, to see and rely upon the dignity of others, to be open to the successes of others, which in turn enables rapid learning and a harvesting of useful experiences. 

The tantric practice focuses on the transformation of one’s own everyday perception. Thereafter, all arising situations, all disturbing emotions become the source of wisdom. The wisdom of equanimity occurs during a transformation which excludes pride.
