National Geographic All Roads Film Project Offers Seed Grants for Indigenous Filmmakers

The All Roads Film Project is a National Geographic initiative created to provide an international platform for indigenous and underrepresented minority artists to share their cultures, stories, and perspectives through the power of film and photography. All Roads includes a film festival, photography program, and seed grant program.
The All Roads Seed Grant Program funds film projects by and about indigenous and underrepresented minority filmmakers from all reaches of the globe. The program seeks filmmakers who bring their lives and communities to light through first-person storytelling.

The grant program is open to indigenous and under-represented minority filmmakers, as well as filmmakers who can demonstrate that they have been designated by indigenous or minority communities to tell their story.

Grants range up to a maximum of $10,000 each.

Submission deadlines are quarterly on the 15th of each March, June, September, and December.
