Hot Docs - CrossCurrents Doc Fund

The CrossCurrents Doc Fund is an international production fund that fosters storytelling from within communities whose perspectives have been historically underrepresented or marginalized.
Initiated by the R&M Lang Foundation in 2014, the Fund promotes inclusion in the documentary space celebrating all doc forms and the diverse perspectives of storytellers. In particular, it focuses on emerging filmmakers who have a connection to or shared experience with their subject, as well as sharing stories with audiences within and outside the featured community.
Interactive/Short Stream is dedicated to short, interactive or experimental works, this stream awards one $10,000 CAD grant and Hot Docs fellowship to one applicant each year.
Theatrical Stream addresses the needs of filmmakers with feature projects. Every year, one or more projects will each receive a grant of up to $30,000 CAD.
