Interfaze Productions
An Imagined Country is being produced by Interfaze Educational Productions, Inc., a 501(c) 3 non-profit, tax-exempt organization incorporated in March of 1996 whose expressed mission is to support film as art; and to encourage films that re-examination our past to better inform social progress in our future and stimulate thought provoking discussion around issues of major social concern in today’s society.
