As the power of the sun brings light and warmth to a cold Minnesota landscape, so do Lightshed’s documentaries illuminate the critical issues of our time and the historic events and individuals who have shaped our lives.

Public Policy Films: Lightshed believes that we need to get beyond the bumper sticker slogans and sound bites that often pass for debate on critically important public policy issues. Today, citizens are largely informed by what they see on a screen.  They are attracted by presentations that tell a story, while conveying information and a message.  Lightshed’s documentaries allow the viewer to make an informed decision on critical issues of our time.

Historical/Biographical Films: Lightshed strives to tell stories of individuals who together or individually have followed their visions in order to produce positive change for their own and future generations.
