JustFilms

We support artist-driven film and new media storytelling projects that explore aspects of inequality, as well as the organizations and networks that support these projects.

JustFilms accepts inquiries for grants year-round, averaging between 800 and 1,000 inquiries annually. We welcome submissions from any region of the world. Our funds are limited, and we are able to support only a small percentage of these projects through direct grants.

All projects submitted for JustFilms grants will be judged on the basis of

• Artistic excellence
• Contemporary relevance
• Alignment with Ford priorities
• Potential for strategic impact
• Potential to transform stereotypes, beliefs, and value systems
• Creativity and innovation in form
• Potential to build cultural power and voice in marginalized communities
