The Screening Room
A private room where filmmakers post independent features and verified theaters browse them and request them. It opens Monday, January 11, 2027 at 10 AM Eastern.
Monday, January 11, 2027 at 10 AM Eastern. The 50 free filmmaker spots open Wednesday, November 18 at 9 AM Eastern, first come, first served. Post your film then and it is in the room on opening day.
For Filmmakers
Post your feature once, with a private screener link, a short pitch, the formats you can deliver and the terms you are open to. Features only, 40 minutes or longer.
Your screener stays private. It is your own unlisted link, only approved theater accounts can open it, and you see every view. When a theater requests your film, you accept or decline in the request thread. Once you accept, you both see each other's contact details, and you get a delivery checklist.
The first 50 films post free. The public spots open Wednesday, November 18 at 9 AM Eastern, first come, first served, and a few more are held for filmmakers we have invited. If you want a note the morning they open, join the list below.
No listing's time starts counting until the room is worth being in: the later of opening day and the day the 25th theater is verified. Post early and the months you have are still whole when the theaters arrive. If the room ever closes for lack of interest from theaters, every paid listing is refunded in full.
No AI. The Screening Room is for films made by people. A film made with AI in any part of it, the script, the footage, the performances, the voices, the sound, the edit or the effects, is not allowed and will be removed without refund. Anyone in the room can report a film they believe breaks that rule, and every report gets a fair review: how reports work.
