The Understory is a motion picture company dedicated to amplifying the mission of individuals and organizations who work to create impact as a force for good.

By relying on the multidisciplinary language of film, we aim to foster awareness, build community, and inspire action to address our most pressing social and environmental problems.

We thrive at the intersection of non-fiction and narrative storytelling, weaving in and out and embracing the blurry line between the lens and the stage; science and art; poetry and fact.
