The National Film Board of Canada:
Canada’s public film producer and distributor
Canada's public producer and distributor, the National Film Board of Canada creates interactive works, social-issue documentaries, auteur animation and alternative dramas that provide the world with a unique Canadian perspective. The NFB is breaking new ground in form and content through interactive and mobile media, community filmmaking projects, programs for emerging filmmakers, stereoscopic film and more. It works in collaboration with creative filmmakers, digital media creators and co-producers in every region of Canada, with Aboriginal and culturally diverse communities, as well as partners around the world. Since the NFB's founding in 1939, it has created over 13,000 productions and won over 5,000 awards, including 4 Webbys, 12 Oscars and more than 90 Genies. Over 2,000 NFB productions can be streamed online, at the NFB.ca Screening Room as well as via partnerships with the world's leading video portals, while the NFB's growing family of apps for smartphones, tablets and connected TV delivers the experience of cinema to Canadians everywhere.
On this site you'll find the complete collection of NFB films, our online stores and information on our new animation and documentaries. Film professionals will find out how to make a film with the NFB and discover NFB Images, a rich collection of stock footage and new high-definition footage. For teachers, the Education section offers a stimulating range of topics for discussion in class. Journalists can also obtain press releases on our events throughout the country.
