Past winners and funding trends for this program
Research & Development Grant is a grant from Chicken & Egg Pictures that funds women and non-binary documentary filmmakers during the early research and development phase of their next feature-length film. The grant addresses a critical funding gap: directors often cannot secure investors without sample material, but producing material without external support is difficult. Two award levels are offered: $10,000 Research Grants and $20,000 Development Grants, with $450,000 total awarded per cycle. Supported by Netflix, the program is now in its fourth year. Eligible applicants must have directed at least one prior feature-length documentary. Applications for the 2026 cycle closed February 4, 2026; the next cycle opens tentatively December 2026.
