Canada's largest incubator dedicated to Black filmmakers is now accepting applications for its 2025 edition.
Part of the Fabienne Colas Foundation's Youth and Diversity Program, it was created to make up for the blatant lack of Black People in front and behind the camera in Canada. It gives a voice and a platform to creators who would not otherwise be seen or heard.
Supported by NETFLIX, the National Bank, Telefilm Canada, the Canada Council for the Arts and its local partners, the Being Black in Canada program will welcome up to 21 new emerging black filmmakers in Montreal, Toronto, Halifax, Ottawa, Calgary and Vancouver, in 2025.
