To honor the legacy of Pare Lorentz, we are looking for a work in progress that embodies Lorentz's central concerns—the appropriate use of the natural environment, social justice, and the illumination of pressing social problems—presented as a compelling story through skillful filmmaking. The film is also judged according to its production values--objective research, artistic writing and outstanding music composition, along with skillful direction, camerawork and editing.
One winner will receive a grant of $25,000.
IDA/Pare Lorentz Documentary Finishing Fund Grant was funded by a grant from The New York Community Trust.
