Emerging streaming platform NDMPlus to offer unique stories

NDM+ (Plus), led by Pinoy director Nijel De Mesa, also the president and CEO of the independent multimedia company NDM Studios, is one of them that churns out content for everyone or a niche market.“So, we launched the streaming platform. It’s called the premium global streaming community platform,” said Nijel in a virtual chat with The STAR, adding that they included the word “community” since they’re taking care of its enthusiasts. “People who are interested in our movies.” NDM+ is also game with the idea of working with visionaries and dreamers because they have touted the platform as, like, “home of unique storytelling.”

“If, for example, filmmakers would approach a certain network or certain film company, sometimes those film companies would say, ‘Ah, that won’t work. That won’t sell. We’re looking for rom-coms and stuff like that,’” said he. “We are the home of crazy ideas.” Yes, these are one-of-a-kind, never-been-told-and-done stories.
