In recent years, there has been a cultural resurgence in Canada's aforementioned documentary stream. Films exploring Canada's identity and role on the world stage have become popular. Due to a political and social split between their American counterparts, Canadian independent documentaries have begun garnering a cult status. Current examples are Mark Achbar's award-winning and top grossing Canadian feature documentary "The Corporation", and Albert Nerenberg's underground hit "Escape to Canada". These films not only nurture homegrown talent, inspiring local industry but also creating a unique voice for Canada itself.
