CFMDC is a non-profit artist-run organization that distributes non-commercial, independent film. 70% of all royalties are returned to the filmmakers whose work we distribute.

We reference Independent Media Arts Alliance and CARFAC guidelines to determine fees. More information about our fee structure can be found on our website.

For physical media, note that clients are responsible for all shipping charges. Rush bookings will be charged an additional fee. Please include any pertinent shipping details or questions in the box above.

CFMDC board and staff proudly commits to the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI). Calls to support PACBI and the wider Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) come from Palestinian civil society and are grassroots strategies opposing the colonization of Palestine by directly targeting complicity.
