• The Nonfiction Hotlist — Exceptional nonfiction storytelling changes how we see the world — but too many powerful projects never get the chance to be made. The Nonfiction Hotlist was created to change that. We are a collective of nonfiction filmmakers, storytellers, producers, and executives behind acclaimed, award-winning content. Together, we curate a vetted list of unproduced projects that deserve champions. By amplifying these stories across the industry, we help ensure more of them find their way into the world — and into the hearts of audiences.
