Tribeca Film Institute Announces Gucci Tribeca Documentary Fund Grantees
The grant, funded by Gucci, provides production finances for feature-length documentary films examining domestic and international social justice issues.
“These films are tackling incredibly important global issues that need more attention, and they are creating space for voices that are often forgotten about and ignored to be heard,” said Layne. “Many of the issues represented in these films such as climate change, racism, sexism, immigration, and terrorism are often dealt with on such a broad, general scale; these films shine light on the real, personal, human, day-to-day impact that these larger issues have.
