Pledge to make a difference, together.
The Alter-Ciné Foundation was created in the memory of Canadian filmmaker, Yvan Patry, who passed away on October 1999. Patry was a co-founder of the production company Alter Ciné and directed numerous documentaries and current affairs programs in Africa, Latin America and Asia: "… documentaries should go against the tide," he said, "they should bear witness and spur us to action." Patry’s documentaries have contributed to tearing down walls of silence, denouncing injustice and barbarism, and giving voice to victims of horror. The Alter-Ciné Foundation is inspired by this ethics. The Foundation offers a 10,000 US$ yearly grant to young filmmakers from Africa, Asia and Latin America to enable them to direct a documentary film on the theme of rights and freedoms.
