Telefilm Canada has just released a report titled “Exploring the Futures of Distribution – Strategic Visions for the Canadian Audiovisual Industry“.

The PDF report by La Société des demains opines, somewhat existentially:

“To resolve distribution issues in a sustainable manner, it is essential to tackle the structural problems throughout the entire value chain, both upstream and downstream of distribution.“

My take: this is a fascinating, if depressing, report on the state of film distribution in Canada. The best part, in my estimation, is the exhaustive list of (almost) every distributor in Canada, found in Appendix A on Page 25.
