'We are not doing political films': Why award-winning documentaries are being frozen out

^{Published on 2025-01-15 18:04:12 - MSN}

The story of the first successful Amazon facility union and a film about Palestinian resistance in the West Bank are among the award-winning documentaries from last year that you can't find on a major streaming platform.

The article from MSN discusses the challenges faced by documentary filmmakers in Canada, particularly in the realm of political documentaries. It highlights how filmmakers like John Curtin and Guylaine Maroist are experiencing difficulties in securing funding and distribution for their work due to a shift in funding priorities. The Canada Media Fund (CMF) has redirected its focus towards children's programming, comedy, and animation, sidelining documentaries that delve into political or controversial subjects. This shift has led to a significant reduction in support for documentaries, with the CMF's funding for such projects dropping dramatically. The article also touches on the broader implications of this trend, suggesting that the lack of support for political documentaries could lead to a less informed public, as these films often tackle important societal issues. Furthermore, it notes the frustration among filmmakers who feel that their work, which often aims to foster social change, is being marginalized in favor of less contentious content.
