    The rationale behind this site is to make it easy for anyone, anywhere, to hold their own screenings chosen from a selected list of documentary films. Using a piece of software called "Indie Screenings" the site facilitates the booking of a film online, automatically calculates the screening fee and then takes payment. The films available - mainly on themes of social justice and environmental concerns - are selected by the Channel 4 BRITDOC team as well as director Franny Armstrong and producer Lizzie Gillett (the team behind environmental film The Age of Stupid). After payment of the licence fee - which is calculated on a sliding scale - the person is then free to charge people to attend their screening, thus recouping the fee and, hopefully, making a profit - which makes the scheme ideal for fundraising.

    Archives/Museums, Distributors

    This self-styled ‘Robin Hood of the avant-garde’ was established 15 years ago as an archive and distributor of art films and is now partially based in Mexico. The disclaimer tells us: ‘All materials are for non-commercial and / or educational use only.' There is some fascinating and rare work here as well as some genuine obscurities. Along with Tweets and podcasts, the site hosts dozens of films, shorts and features, ranging from early works by the likes of Brian de Palma and Joseph Cornell to more widely-known experimental filmmakers such as Andy Warhol, Jean Cocteau and Steve McQueen. Part of the site is now devoted to electronic music and sound. The website is large and cleanly laid out though the lack of any guided search tools is unfortunate - the legal aspects behind the hosting of much of the content is at best questionable, but its intentions are seemingly honourable.
