Mission Statement
To entertain film audiences with engaging real-life stories which are rooted in truth from the perspectives and beliefs of the subjects at hand…
Documentary-style filmmaking will be the principal medium, intending to expand the appreciation of independent cinema, while placing an emphasis on extraordinary cinematography of both the environments and characters where each story takes place.The goal of this dynamic will be to produce a satisfied audience with a curiosity to explore the subject further, but at minimum, ‘opening a door’ to the acceptance of an alternative idea or fresh point of view.
In all endeavors, a culture of collaboration between That’s A Fact Films LLC and their investors, sponsors, writers, actors, and production team
partners will serve to create a synergy of inspiration, comradery, and fun while meeting artistic, budget, and financial goals of each project.
