Alliance Films is a major motion picture distribution/production company which serves Canada, the United Kingdom, and Spain. Formally known as Motion Picture Distribution LP, it was re branded and relaunched in 2007 due to the break-up of its preceding company, Alliance Atlantis, which was sold off piece by piece to Canwest Global, GS Capital Partners, along with several other smaller companies.
Alliance Atlantis and Vivafilm home video releases were, and continue to be, manufactured and distributed by Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
