Rolling deadline

The All Roads Seed Grant Program funds film projects by and about indigenous and underrepresented minority-culture filmmakers year-round and from all reaches of the globe. The programme seeks filmmakers who bring their lives and communities to light through first-person storytelling. Submissions are judged quarterly on the 15th of each March, June, September, and December. Award notifications are made approximately six weeks after each of these dates.


The deadline for application is a rolling deadline with quarterly notification of grant decisions.
