ContentFilm plc is a London-based film and television sales company. It also owns or controls a significant library of film and television rights and assets, including over 3,000 hours of television and over 100 feature films.

In September 2006, ContentFilm plc acquired certain assets of UAV Corporation and UAV Holdings (‘UAV Assets’) and Allumination FilmWorks LLC (‘Allumination’). The completion of these two acquisitions means the Company now wholly owns a significant US DVD distribution operation, giving the Company increased scope to exploit its library of TV and film assets.
