About Canada Wild Productions

We are an independent documentary film and television production company based in Vancouver. We specialize in making accessible and engaging documentaries about controversial issues.

We believe that behind the politics in our communities lie human dramas with lessons that deeply affect out lives. We have developed a unique form of distribution which blends theatrical screening in cinemas with community based forums in order to bring these stories to the Canadian public.

We are known throughout the industry for putting a great deal of effort into the distribution of our films. All our films have been both broadcast and theatrically distributed in cinemas nationally and internationally.
