I saw this offer from Filmatique and thought you might enjoy it while we're away.
7 Days of Cinema starting this Friday April 3
A Statement From Filmatique's Head Curator
"Like many of you, I'm at home. Self-isolation takes its toll, but this is the single most important thing we can do.
In an effort to encourage connection, even diversion, in these uncertain times, Filmatique has created 7 Days of Cinema. Each day, for seven days, our curators will present one of their favorite films—which you can watch for free. You won't need to sign up for a trial or enter your credit card information. Just come here and watch each day's film.
The aim of this virtual movie club is to open a space of reflection, discovery, and connectedness amid an atmosphere of paralysis and fear. The coronavirus pandemic has undermined our social rituals—we can no longer seek solace in each other's company. So where can we turn? Filmatique has long believed in cinema as a tool to help us learn to think differently, to ask different questions, to see the world through different eyes. Perhaps this moment of crisis can also serve as a moment of pause—and perhaps by watching these films together, we can forge new forms of connection.
Feel free to share this program with your family, friends, and loved ones—and tune into our social channels to hear our curators and collaborators talk about each film. Please stay safe, stay home if you're able to, and enjoy."
