Founded in 1977, the Saskatchewan Filmpool Cooperative has a proud history of promoting and assisting independent film production and its contribution to Saskatchewan’s cultural expression.

Description

The Filmpool provides its members with film and sound editing facilities, film and video production equipment, and opportunities for production, post-production and distribution funding.
