There were some significant attempts in the area of film production and distribution, which are worth mentioning: like Chitralekha, Odessa, Chalachitra and Rasmi Film Society. Chitralekha Film Cooperative was one of the pioneers in the field. After making a number of significant films including Swayamvaram and Kodiyettam, the cooperative became inactive. Janasakthi films, an offshoot of the post emergency cultural upsurge, also made some significant attempts in the field. They had a collection of films for distribution and also made forays into production. Odessa's Amma Ariyan, the last film of the late John Abraham, was made entirely with the contributions of common folk an exceptional incident in the history of cinema.

It was in its tenth year that Chalachitra went one step further in its activities and directed by making a documentary film on renowned illustrator and artist Namboodiri and directed by G. Aravindan, titled "Contours of Linear Rhythm". A major event after Odessa experiment was that of Resmi Film Society, which produced a documentary "Ithihasathile Khasak" in 1995.In 2003 Scarface came out with 'Agni',a digital short feature.
