The Art of Finding Ideas:
WE ARE Pelican Pictures creativity, we find original film concepts:
We’re here to challenge the way people see things: no matter how big or small, our passion is inspiring audiences to look at the world differently. We believe the most powerful stories are not about what people do, but about why they do it. This runs through all of our work, whether it’s an independent feature film, a national advertising campaign or a 30-second film for a website, we work tirelessly with a carefully selected team of people to tell the best possible version of the story in the form of a beautifully-crafted film. Not content with just being in front of the camera, Joe Rabl launched his company Pelican Pictures, as a executive producer / producer/ director and screenwriter, he wants to foster international collaboration and generate projects with commercial value and artistic integrity. He is currently developing his own feature projects: 'Solar Storm', 'Merka ' & '"The Journey Begins In Africa"-"In the Shadow of the Red Umbrella" and also "Let's go to Hollywood"
Pelican Pictures will be a home for film-makers to connect and find expression for their talents, a place of support and joining together to make high quality films.

A solar storm hits the Earth sending a city into chaos and three of its inhabitants on a journey of discovery, pursuit and death. "Solar Storm" is a character-driven action drama where the lives of three people coincide as the effects of the storm on electrical infrastructure and human behavior create a dangerous situation of escalating jeopardy. The story follows: Joe, an ex-gang member who has tried to go straight but when he's made redundant and can't pay his rent is forced by necessity to go back to his criminal past; Jasmine, an economic migrant who is trapped in an abusive relationship and needs to find a way to be free and; Inspector Munro, an experienced 'old-school' police officer who pursues them. They all meet when Joe takes Jasmine hostage after robbing a gas station and escaping Munro's attempted intervention. As the pair continues to evade the arm of the law, the attentions of a manipulative controlling husband and a betrayed gang hell-bent on revenge, they become close and as they share the stories of their lives a relationship develops, of mutual need...and desire...and they recognize a chance to escape their problems together. In scenes that alternate between intimate and 'high octane' chase sequences, the themes of financial crises, environmental influence, socio-economic politics, identity and love are explored through the personal circumstances that the characters are forced to confront and try to deal with.

“Solar Storm” is a character-driven action drama. In theaters 2023. Do you want to support this film? Check out our crowdfunding page.
