About Cinereach

Our three key areas, Grants & Awards, Productions, and The Reach Film Fellowship, facilitate the creation of films that challenge, excite, innovate, offer new perspectives and inspire action.

Cinereach has awarded more than $1.6 million in grants and achievement awards since its inception. Past recipients include: THE BETRAYAL (NERAKHOON), a 2009 Academy Award nominee for Best Documentary; A JIHAD FOR LOVE, the acclaimed documentary exploring the complex global intersections of Islam and homosexuality; and HOMETOWN BAGHDAD, the recipient of four 2008 Webby Awards.

Through The Reach Film Fellowship, a program approaching its third year, Cinereach supports talented young filmmakers creating meaningful short films with artistic merit.

Cinereach Productions’ first in-house documentary, THE ROAD AHEAD: THE FIRST GREEN LONG MARCH, was an official selection of the Hamptons, Queens (Best International Documentary Film), and Cleveland International film festivals and has screened in connection with leading environmental organizations and at the Asia Society in New York.
