OUR SUBJECTS

NewMil Media is a Los Angeles based production and content-creation company founded by filmmaker Sepi Makabi. The company specializes in unscripted storytelling, producing premium docuseries and feature documentaries that sit at the intersection of entertainment, social impact, and contemporary culture.

NewMil Media takes pride in collaborating with award-winning editors, executive producers, and creative partners across the film, television, and digital media landscape. Built as a creative community of independent minds, the company operates as a nimble, high-level collective plugging into larger branded entities, networks, and organizations to maximize reach, resonance, and real-world impact.

Driven by the belief that the most powerful stories are both meaningful and accessible, NewMil Media develops projects that explore urgent human themes while tapping into pop-cultural narratives and zeitgeist-level conversations trending across social media and global platforms. 

The company’s latest feature documentary, A Hero’s Burden, directed by Makabi, exemplifies this mission. The film is an intimate, character-driven exploration of trauma, heroism, and the unseen cost of survival, told through a deeply human lens. A Hero’s Burden screened at the legendary Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, California, marking a major milestone for the company and reinforcing NewMil Media’s position within the social-impact documentary space.

With a growing slate of projects in development, NewMil Media continues to champion bold, emotionally resonant stories that reflect the world we live in stories designed to matter now and endure beyond the moment.
