The company was Advanced Party Scheme. Advance Party Scheme is the name given to a set of three films which are to be produced by executive producers Lone Scherfig, Anders Thomas Jenson and Gillian Berrie, they are all to follow a set of rules.
Rules:
"The scripts can take their starting point in one or more characters or they may be subjected to an external drama. The characters can also participate in a form that is governed primarily by neither characters nor plot.
The films take place in Scotland but apart from that the writers are free to place them anywhere according to geography, social setting or ethnic background. Their back-stories can be expanded, family relations can be created between them, they can be given habits good or bad, and secondary characters can be added if it is proper for the individual film.
The interpersonal relationships of the characters differ from film to film and they may be weighted differently as major or minor characters.
The development of the characters in each story or genre does not affect the other scripts.
All of the characters must appear in all of the films.
The various parts will be cast with the same actors in the same parts in all of the films."
