Although films can vary in length and subject matter, “The proposed film must be analytical and deeply grounded in humanities scholarship.” Individuals or teams of filmmakers may be awarded up to $75,000 for development awards and $650,000 for production awards. The application deadline is June 10, 2015. Good candidates: State, tribal, and local governments, private and public higher education institutions, and 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations.
