Program overview
The Canada Arts and Culture Recovery Program (“CACRP”) is designed to assist Canadian arts, culture and heritage organizations that have suffered revenue losses due to venue capacity limitations and audiences’ continued reluctance to return to live performances as a result of COVID-19.
Through the Theatrical Distribution Compensation Program, Telefilm will distribute a portion of CACRP funds to assist Canadian distribution companies whose business operations have been affected by public health advisories requiring complete theatre closures or reduced capacity, which has impacted the companies’ revenues and therefore their financial capacity.
Who can apply
Eligible companies involved must:
- Be under Canadian control.
- Have their head office in Canada.
- Carry out their activities in Canada.
- Have distributed a minimum of two (2) Canadian feature films in commercial theatres in Canada between January 1, 2018, and September 1, 2022.
If you are a theatrical exhibitor, you are not eligible for this program. However, please visit our Theatrical Exhibition Program page.
