Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Up There (80 mins, 15)

A dour ghost (Burn Gorman) is stuck in a tediously bureaucratic afterlife in this imaginative, atmospheric comedy. It balances the supernatural and the mundane in the wry British fashion of 2010's Skeletons.

Jason Becker: Not Dead Yet (87 mins, TBC)

Humbling documentary about a rock guitar prodigy who was pole-axed by a paralysing illness at the age of 19.

Hit So Hard (103 mins, TBC)

A far less inspirational rockumentary chronicling Patty Schemel's drug addictions while she was the drummer of Hole.

The Pool (98 mins, 12A)

Small but perfectly formed coming-of-age drama in which an illiterate boy is befriended by the wealthy owner of a summer house in Goa.
