Full Spectrum has produced over 40 short films and features[3], including The Year Between, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2022[4], and was sold to Gravitas Ventures for North American distribution.[5] The company has also produced several award-winning short films and educational website about the history of Japanese-American incarceration during WWII.[6][7]

Full Spectrum's latest release, a hybrid documentary-narrative film entitled Desire Lines, won the NEXT Special Jury Award at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.[8] The film has received mostly positive reviews.[9] Manohla Dargis of The New York Times praised Desire Lines for having "heart and intelligence."[10]
