About us

VERAfilm was founded in 1998 by Petr Bok and Martin Smok as a production company dedicated to creation and distribution of veracious documentaries based on in-depth research of the primary information. The VERAfilm production should thus consistently enhance the education possibilities of the multimedia age. The first major project in which VERAfilm actively participated was documentary trilogy Among Blind Fools, a film presenting some of the hidden chapters of the Holocaust.

The company is licensed not only as an audiovisual program producer, but also as:
  • consultant for audiovisual projects
  • publishing agent
  • advertising and publicity agent
  • purchasing and sales agent
  • brokerage agent
