About Ten Centuries

Ten Centuries is a media production company committed to telling the stories of underserved and marginalized populations. Powerful storytelling through film has the capacity to humanize complex issues, dismantle stereotypes, and change attitudes unlike any other media. Stories have the ability to affect personal and social change, and to move us from a culture of disassociation to a culture of harmony and respect.

Ten Centuries works with nonprofits, social service agencies, issue advocates, and faith-based organizations to powerfully and respectfully capture the humanity of men, women, and children who daily feel the sting of being misunderstood, mistreated, misrepresented, or ignored by our culture at large and by public policies that deny them justice, dignity, and respect, and keep their voices unheard.
