Alliance Films Holdings, Inc. (formerly Alliance Entertainment, Alliance Communications, Alliance Atlantis Releasing Ltd, and Motion Picture Distribution LP; also known as Alliance Vivafilm in Quebec or simply Alliance) was a Canadian motion picture distribution and production company.

Founded in 1984, Alliance was one of the major motion picture companies to distribute independent films outside the United States and other countries, and had also served the United Kingdom and Spain.

After Entertainment One acquired Alliance Films on January 9, 2013, the latter brand was dissolved; with Alliance Vivafilm folding into Les Films Séville in 2014.
