Company Bio

​​Sideways Film distributes internationally across all medias and formats, and attends 15-20 international markets and festivals each year. Their films have screened at major festivals (Sundance, IDFA, Tribeca, Sheffield, Hot Docs etc) and been licensed globally (Netflix, BBC, Nat Geo, ARTE and many other clients large and small). We take on just 12 titles each year so we are looking for documentaries and series that fit our profile, are of the highest quality, and are both universal and original.
