MISSION
Arising from the merger of Spirafilm and Vidéo Femmes in 2015, Spira is a cooperative that supports and fosters creation and production in independent filmmaking, and distributes film works to ensure their promotion in Canada and abroad.

VALUES
Four core values, dear to the coop, are put forward on a daily basis and through various actions, in the elaboration of projects, in the selection of supported productions, and most of all, in the relationship with members and the public.

Spira is about: equity, openness, rigour, and collaboration.

DESCRIPTION
Spira is a cooperative devoted to independent filmmaking, born in 2015 from the merger of Spirafilm and Vidéo Femmes, which had both been around for nearly 40 years.
Spira's core mission is to support the production and distribution of independent films, whether short or feature. Each year, about thirty works benefit from its various creation support programs, including its well-sought-after equipment rental program. Spira also distributes documentaries and fictions on various Canadian and foreign markets, including festivals, theatrical, television, the web, etc.
The coop contributes to the dynamism and development of the cinematographic community in Québec City by offering training activities, master classes, collective projects, and networking activities. Fostering the public's interest in cinema is also part of the coop's objectives.
