About RealWorld
We create documentary films, TV and web series that inspire and entertain audiences across Canada and around the world. From our award-winning docuseries Native Planet to our acclaimed theatrical documentary Cry of the Andes, RealWorld produces compelling stories about current issues shaping our population and planet.
RealWorld Media is character driven and authentic.
RealWorld Media Inc. and our wholly owned affiliate RealWorld Films Inc. take a hands-on approach to crafting our stories. Our creative teams conceive and develop our stories, travel the world to film our content, then edit our documentaries from RealWorld’s studio in Vancouver, Canada. This auteur approach to production provides us with intimate access to the people and communities whose stories we are privileged to share.
