Your stakeholders sit through presentations full of numbers and nod along. Then they go home and forget about you by Tuesday. Nothing stuck.
The organizations that keep their funders and win competitive bids have one thing in common. They have a story people can feel.
Your definitive film. It lives on your website, plays at your gala, and opens every board presentation. Who you are, what you believe, and why it matters. In under three minutes.

Your year-end data has a human being behind every number. We find them. Short documentary portraits of the people your work changed. The kind of film a donor watches and renews their gift.

A single deep-dive documentary on one beneficiary, partner, or community member. The film you send to a funder who wants to know if your program works. Real people. Unscripted.
Book a Free Call →You already fund the work. The Cohort Model turns part of that funding into stories that keep working after the grant cycle ends. Here is how it works.
"Kahani... they've been super helpful with grant applications, playing a key role in us securing innovation funding to expand our work. Couldn't have asked for better partners!"

The film series that won multi-million dollar contracts.
"We wanted to close the interview with a story that spoke to why the library is so much more than just physical space. We shared Kahani's video as a final takeaway to our conversation with the client. The next day we were awarded the project"
See Case Study →Every Kahani film starts the same way. We look for the story that already exists inside your work. Then we make it impossible to look away from.
A structured discovery process. We interview your team, your partners, and your stakeholders. We’re looking for the moment that makes everything else make sense.
We build the narrative architecture. Who is the hero. What is at stake. What changes by the end. Every film has a spine before we pick up a camera.
Cinema crew. Proper equipment. We don’t do corporate video aesthetics.
Edited. Colour graded. Mixed for broadcast. Ready to deploy on your website, at your gala, in your grant application, or in your next pitch meeting.
If your last impact report felt like a missed opportunity. If you’ve watched a competitor’s film and thought “we should have something like that.” If you’ve lost a grant you deserved because the committee couldn’t picture your work.
This is what we do.
Most impact films are delivered in 8 to 14 weeks from kickoff. Cohort projects run on a coordinated timeline with all grantees.
Standalone impact films start at $12.500. Cohort model pricing is structured per grantee and brings the per-organization cost down. We can talk through what makes sense for your budget.
That's what the discovery phase is for. Most organizations don't know their best story until we start asking the right questions.
Yes, and we approach that work differently. We follow Indigenous storytelling protocols, prioritize community ownership of the narrative, and can talk through what that looks like for your project.
A professionally produced documentary short, typically 3 to 8 minutes, optimized for web, social, and funder presentations. We also provide a raw cut for internal use and stills from the shoot.
It's designed for it. Films like these have contributed to a $3M federal grant and a Kickstarter that overfunded by 1,350%. We build in the emotional architecture that moves people to act.
Most organizations we meet already have the story. It’s in their files somewhere. In an email from a beneficiary. In a moment their staff talks about at team meetings but has never been filmed.
We’re currently accepting Impact Storytelling projects for Q4 2026.
We take a limited number each quarter.
