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.

THE FILM

Sister, My Sister

Theatre director Nancy Meckler is best known for her work with Shared Experience, notably The Mill on the Floss. Her debut feature is an arresting mood piece starring Jodhi May, Joely Richardson and Julie Walters which pulled tremendous notices in the USA but remains unreviewed by several British papers. Nothing to do with its lesbian content, of course.

Ipswich Film Theatre 6pm, 8.15pm (01473 215544)

THE GIG

Annie Ross

The legendary jazz vocalist of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross fame had a sensational career boost when Robert Altman cast her as a gravelly chanteuse in Short Cuts. Here, at last, is an opportunity to catch her in the flesh.

Pizza on the Park, London SW1 8pm (0171-235 5550)
