SHIKA TSURU PICTURES is a London-based production company developing and producing distinctive, filmmaker-driven work across fiction, documentary, and theatre.

Founded by producer and filmmaker Solomon Golding, the company is shaped by a cross-disciplinary practice rooted in movement, visual art, and international storytelling, as well as Golding’s Ghanaian heritage. The name Shika Tsuru, meaning “gold” in Ga, speaks to a belief in stories as objects of value: rare, carefully wrought, and enduring.

The company’s emblem, the Atsiki Oyi, is a Ga sama representing the fishing net: With a strong net, one is assured of fish; the right tool must be used for the right task.

This philosophy underpins Shika Tsuru’s approach to production: pairing ambitious filmmakers with the structures, collaborators, and processes best suited to realise their vision.

SHIKA TSURU PICTURES champions bold, emotionally rigorous work that engages with identity, legacy, and collective memory, while maintaining a strong commitment to formal experimentation and global perspectives. Operating at the intersection of art and cinema, the company prioritises close creative partnerships and work designed to travel; across cultures and conversations.
