All Roads project wraps up successful year

The National Geographic All Roads Film Project sprung up six years ago when the National Geographic Society decided to expand from conservation and natural sciences into culture. Fast forward six years and the All Roads project has provided a solid space for Indigenous and under-represented minorities to shine in photography and films. With an advisory board that includes Spike Lee, Forest Whitaker and Kiefer Sutherland, the festival and grant program wrapped up 2008 with more seed grant recipients and bigger audience numbers than ever.
