Atopia is a production company and film distributor based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The company was founded in 2000 by Pascal Maeder. During the following decade, the company produced and released a string of critically acclaimed and award-winning feature films including Daniel Cross' S.P.I.T.: Squeegee Punks In Traffic,[1] Federico Hidalgo's A Silent Love,[2][3] Simon Sauve's Jimmywork,[4][5] Noel Mitrani's Sur la trace d'Igor Rizzi,[6] Laura Bari's Antoine[7] Jephté Bastien's Sortie 67[8] as well as André Forcier's Je me souviens.[9]

Initially launched as an online film studio[10] with the development of 39 episodic web films in 2001, Atopia became the first Canadian distributor to release its feature films online through early platforms such as Jaman.[11]
