VACATIONLAND is a film studio based in NYC and LA. We make films that we hope contribute to making the world a more compassionate and equitable place. We founded VACATIONLAND on a belief that we have a responsibility as filmmakers - to leave the world a little better than we found it.
The last year has allowed us to drive these values even further home by challenging how we work and interact with the world and people around us. These Field Studies are examples of our work over the past year.
