At Persistent Films we believe documentary cinema can do more than tell stories — it can deepen understanding, build connection, and invite change. As the dedicated nonfiction arm of Persistent Productions, we bring our years of creative rigor and production discipline to the art of independent documentary filmmaking.
We seek out voices and perspectives that deserve attention: subjects whose lives reflect larger cultural, social or ecological questions, and whose own truth is powerful. Our approach is rooted in respect — for our subjects, their context, and the audience. In the creation of our craft we emphasize cinematic integrity, deeply informed research and
thought provoking narratives.
