By 1945, the NFB became one of the world’s largest film studios, with a staff of 800 people and more than 500 films released, shown monthly in Canadian and foreign theatres.6 It was a leading producer of world-class documentaries, animation and experimental films, and its productions have won more than 5,000 international awards.
