Correct. With USAID off the table, there's always "Art Fund Endowments" in Canada and Europe. I recall an interview with John Patrick Shanley where he recounts that he got a grant for about $50k from the (tax-payer funded) National Endowment for the Arts to write his screenplay for "Doubt." The guy was already getting paid by the studio, with residuals, and he still took money from the American tax-payer to write his screenplay. Fucking shameless!
