JUSTFILMS

The Ford Foundation seeks to reduce inequality in all of its forms, and
artist-driven documentary and emerging media projects are crucial to this
effort. As part of the Creativity and Free Expression program, JustFilms funds
social justice storytelling and the 21st-century arts infrastructure that
supports it. The projects and people we support inspire imaginations, disrupt
stereotypes, and help transform the conditions that perpetuate injustice and
inequality.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


WHAT WE DO

We believe that artist-driven moving image storytelling is vital to the pursuit
of justice and equity in the 21st century. To flourish, storytellers and their
networks need aligned creative, financial, and professional support, as well as
distribution systems that enable them to reach a wide range of audiences.
Historically, the field of independently produced film and emerging media has
been under-resourced—and affordable, reliable access to the work for audiences
remains a challenge.

To address this, JustFilms supports ideas, individuals, institutions, and
networks that work to reduce inequality through film, video, and emerging media
platforms, with a special focus on documentary practices. We strive to increase
resources in the field, develop artists as leaders, and connect storytellers
with the tools and talent they need to do their best work, amplify their
message, and extend the impact of their projects.

JustFilms projects are inspired by courageous individuals and undaunted
communities seeking justice. These powerful stories expand opportunities for
civic engagement and affirm the central role of cultural strategies in social
transformation. Our strategy is informed by the foundation’s long history of
supporting independent documentary film, public media institutions, artists, and
freedom of expression—all of which have had a profound effect on the public
consciousness.


LEARN ABOUT THE PROJECTS WE'VE FUNDED

We support independent, documentary film, video, and emerging media projects
that explore timely social justice issues, with a focus on reducing inequality.
We also fund organizations, individuals, and networks that raise the quality and
extend the impact of these projects.

The projects listed represent a sampling of the work we have supported over the
years.

JUSTFILMS INQUIRY 

JustFilms supports independent film and emerging media projects that explore
urgent social justice issues and seek to challenge inequality in all its forms.
We also support the organizations and networks that help further these projects.
Funds are distributed in two areas, social justice storytelling and 21st-century
infrastructure, which together aim to transform pervasive narratives that
produce and maintain inequality, and attract more resources for artist-driven
creative visual storytelling around the world.
