People power
Self-distribution is empowering.
We just wrapped a two-year community driven distribution of our film THE PHILADELPHIA ELEVEN. As we start a new year, we are pausing to celebrate more than 515 community screenings, a semi-theatrical in 14 cities with sold out theaters, thousands of people joined online events, and close to 90% coverage for our PBS broadcast.
This is what is possible when viewers embrace community discussion and engagement as the model for sharing documentary films. None of this happens without the organizers, hosts, public television stations, and audiences who believe in independent storytelling.
Big platforms with marketing budgets have their perks, but we wouldn't do this any other way. The value of experiencing these films together, unpacking their meaning, and relishing in the transformative power of story, is only possible when we do it together.
All of our projects start with a vision for who will see the film, where, and how. What will they talk about? How might they change their perspective? Who will they share it with?
A film is just the beginning. Let's dream about where it will take us.
We offer transformative storytelling through documentary film to nonprofits who want to level up their communications and reach new audiences with an emotionally authentic connection.
