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.

We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Justin Hardy's Reading-set comedy-drama follows Rebecca (Georgia Maguire), a 25-year-old university graduate living a dreary life. She has an office job which doesn't tax her.
Her social life involves half-hearted trips to bars and nightclubs with her work colleagues. She lives at home, looking after her young brother, who is addicted to video games.
The film is well-observed in its low-key fashion, and played with wry charm by Maguire and Tim Plester, as the nerdy boss busy courting her.
Even so, this is a strangely listless affair, which seems as bereft of energy as its meandering twenty-something protagonists.
