The National Film Board of Canada:
Canada’s public film producer and distributor

The National Film Board of Canada (NFB) produces and distributes bold and distinctive social issue documentaries, auteur animation, alternative drama and innovative digital content that provide the world with a unique Canadian perspective. Since the NFB's founding in 1939, it has created over 13,000 productions and won over 5,000 awards, including 12 Oscars and more than 90 Genies.

On this site you'll find the complete collection of NFB films, our online stores and information on our new animation and documentaries. Film professionals will find out how to make a film with the NFB and discover NFB Images, a rich collection of stock footage and new high-definition footage. For teachers, the Education section offers a stimulating range of topics for discussion in class. Journalists can also obtain press releases on our events throughout the country.

In the heart of Canada’s two largest cities, the NFB’s downtown centres are open to the public. Montreal’s CineRobotheque and Toronto’s Mediatheque are at the cutting edge of technology and provide a complete cinematic experience: workshops, individual viewing stations, screenings and special events, as well as opportunities for young people to develop their media skills.
