Sandbox Films is a documentary studio that illuminates the art and beauty of scientific inquiry. At Sandbox Films, we collaborate with production partners and visionary filmmakers around the world, providing co-production and financing opportunities for feature-length documentary projects. At its core, science is the art of asking questions. It’s a way of thinking — based on evidence, inspired by curiosity — that invites nuance and imagination. Our films celebrate this sense of possibility, in pursuit of revealing deeper truths about our world. Our films ask more questions than they give answers. They convey scientific ideas, embedded in culture, designed to inspire new and diverse audiences. As a film company, we invest in feature-length independent documentaries intended for top-tier festivals, a theatrical release, and mainstream digital streaming and/or a broadcast release. We can come onto a project at any stage — from early development seed funding to core production financing to finishing funds. We support films that are artist-driven, providing creative, editorial, practical, and strategic support, guided by a project’s needs. We work with independent filmmakers at all career stages, from emerging artists to celebrated auteurs. We also work to nurture new voices in science documentary and to inspire the world’s leading nonfiction storytellers to dabble in the sciences. We prioritize projects that feature topics, disciplines, and expert voices that aren’t typically featured in science media.
