Summary

- The company focuses on raw, overlooked stories in music and counterculture.
- Projects include documentaries and narrative films about music scenes.
Fucked Up frontman Damian Abraham has officially launched Cut & Paste Pictures, a Toronto production company he co-founded last year with former CBC executive Zach Feldberg. The company is dedicated to developing "culture-shaping stories that are raw, uncommon, and often overlooked," with a particular focus on music, counterculture, and outsider voices.
Cut & Paste's initial slate includes a feature-length documentary by Scott Barber about the friendship between Rise Against guitarist Zach Blair and wrestler Hassan "MVP" Assad. Assad is also featured in an unscripted series about life after prison, titled Exit Strategy.
Further projects encompass a feature film, I Just Want to Talk to You, detailing a 1970s band's unrequited gay love that led to their breakup, and a half-hour comedy series, Hoser. The latter, created by Abraham and Ehren 'Bear Witness' Thomas, follows a disgraced American podcaster who ends up in Canada. Additional developments include a genre-bending factual series and a documentary exploring southern Ontario's 1990s suburban punk rock scene.
