Our aim is to produce social and politically conscious documentaries that challenge established truths, while at the same time exploring new forms and approaches to the documentary film genre. The documentary film is now experiencing a renaissance, and the addition of social media, audience interactivity and cross media approaches to storytelling have given us a new set of brushes to paint with, ensuring that the future impact of documentary films will be stronger than ever. ManifestoFilm’s productions have been shot worldwide, dealing with issues in India, Gaza, Iraq, the West Bank and Uganda. The company was established in Tromsø, Norway in 2003 by filmmaker Anniken Hoel, and has since expanded to include an office in Berlin, Germany.
