Never miss a great movie again

We help connect film lovers to under-the-radar foreign, under-the-radar, and female-directed films. Some of these will only ever play film festivals; others will drop quietly on streaming. We share our favourite films and how to watch them by email.

Insightful conversations on the best contemporary films
