Bringing untold Stories
to The World
Our Documentary and Fiction Division produces original, award-winning documentaries, documentary series and short films for television and other platforms.
It’s the stories that fuel us more than the awards
While we have loved every time we’ve won an award for our work, it’s really the stories that motivate us.
Our films take viewers into worlds they would otherwise never see, from Chinese orphanages, to Sin City swingers’ conventions, from Nunavut ice fishing contests to high stakes international arm wrestling competitions.
