Sundance Institute Documentary Fund



The Sundance Institute Documentary Film Program provides year-round support to nonfiction contemporary-issue filmmakers internationally. The program encourages the exploration of innovative nonfiction storytelling, and promotes the exhibition of documentary films to a broader audience. It supports independent artists both domestically and internationally through the Sundance Documentary Fund, the Documentary Composers Laboratory and Edit and Story Laboratory, panels at the Filmmakers Lodge at the Sundance Film Festival and the Sundance Independent Producers Conference , and a variety of collaborative international documentary initiatives.

The Sundance Documentary Fund is a key program of the Documentary Film Program, dedicated to supporting U.S. and international documentary films that focus on current human rights issues, freedom of expression, social justice, civil liberties, and exploring critical issues of our time.

The Documentary Fund now considers projects in four categories: Development, Production and Post-Production, Engagement* and Impact*.

*Engagement grants are awarded to innovative distribution and audience engagement strategies. Available to previous grantees only.
*Impact grants support on-going work on the issues by the filmmakers. By invitation only.
