Cinereach is a nonprofit[1] story incubator and media production company working at the intersection of impact storytelling and popular entertainment. Founded as a film foundation and production company in New York, NY in 2006, the organization provided grants, awards, and an annual fellowship,[2] working closely with other film development organizations such as the Sundance Institute[3] and other film funding organizations.[4] In 2021, Cinereach expanded to incorporate a systems thinking approach to developing original content, and began working in additional media including television and video games.

Expansion
With a growing interest in narrative change and systems thinking, Cinereach developed a research and development process to further understand how to create stories that cut through silos and move audiences to greater curiosity, empathy, and agency. [8] The insight garnered from this research enables Cinereach to strategically partner with storytellers and other organizations to create original content in film, television, video games, and other media.[9]
The organization also continues to invest in film productions that align with their values, including Reality (2023), Tuesday (2023), Mustache (2023), and musical documentary New Wave (2024).
