Perspective Films, a new documentary co-production initiative led by independent producer Jess Devaney, has unveiled its inaugural slate of films, Variety can report exclusively. The subjects of Perspective’s first five documentaries include the clash between federal immigration enforcement and the citizens of Minneapolis, the war in Gaza and the invention of C-SPAN.
“Every story on this slate is about who gets to shape history — a concert that sparked a movement, a network that threw open the halls of power to the public and residents documenting state violence as it unfolds,” Devaney said. “These films bring together Oscar-winning directors, veteran producers, and a journalist reporting from inside a war zone. They are collaborators of extraordinary talent and courage, and we’re proud to partner on their visionary films.”
