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.

Four films from one of America’s most distinctive film-makers to tie-in with the release of Kelly Reichardt’s thriller Night Moves.

The standout is the heartbreaking Wendy And Lucy, in which Michelle Williams’s drifter goes in search of work in Alaska, along with her beloved dog, only to break down in rural Oregon.

Williams also stars in Reichardt’s tense Western Meek’s Cutoff, set in 1845 along the Oregon Trail.

The set is completed by her debut River of Glass, never released in the UK before, and the minimalist Old Joy, in which two old pals reunite for a camping trip.
