History.
Told Like Cinema.
We make documentaries about the past and publish the evidence they rest on — the sources, the licences, the material we refused to use, and the questions the record cannot answer.

The films are the fifteen per cent. Every documentary leaves research behind; the books are the rest of it.
Every film shows its workings
The sources
Each claim traced to a record you can go and read yourself.
The rights
Every image cleared individually, with its licence and origin stated.
The gaps
Where the evidence stops, we say so — on the film and on the page.
Anyone can claim to be careful. We would rather you checked.
