Gucci and the Tribeca Film Institute have established the Gucci Tribeca Documentary Fund to "provide finishing funds to documentaries that promote social change and illuminate issues in need of comprehensive coverage currently missing from mainstream media," Fashion Week Daily reports.

The Tribeca Film Institute will offer $5,000 to $30,000 to a minimum of three filmmakers in 2008 totaling $80,000, based on a committee comprised of the Institute, Gucci, and notable talents in the film world. Submissions for eligible projects will be accepted between February 5 and April 11, 2008 and are open to all U.S. and international applicants
