Wroughten Films

Wroughten Films

Wroughten Films is the production company of Jurgen Vsych, also known as "The Woman Director". Vsych named her company when she was six years old. It derives from the word "wrought", and is also a wordplay on "rot." The company's motto is, "Not the same old rot."

In her autobiography, "The Woman Director", Vsych writes: "When I was learning to read, I tried sounding out the name of a sign I saw on Venice Boulevard, 'WROUGHT IRON.' Mom said it was pronounced 'rot,' and it meant that the iron was very good, very well-crafted. Later that afternoon, I went to nursery school and painted with Matilda Gomez. When Matilda painted a really good picture of a boat, I said, 'That's wroughten.' She said, 'It is NOT!' and stabbed me in the eye with her paintbrush."

Vsych concludes her autobiography with, "A big dream of mine is to have 'wroughten' be in the dictionary, like 'Capraesque' or 'Pythonesque.' Maybe, someday, I will be an adjective ('That movie was very Vsych.')"
