Where can I view the films?

All films are available at no cost through TubiTV or YouTube. Some films may also be available on other services, such as The Roku Channel or Pluto TV. The links to the films in the list above includes information about where each movie can be streamed.

How do I sign up for multiple meetings?

If you want to sign up for all remaining film discussions, select that option in the purchase menu. If you only want to attend some of the discussions, each meeting is listed as a separate product in this page, with each meeting priced at $15. (No discounts available.) You may add any or all of them to your cart for purchase, although our system only allows one item to be selected at a time. To add an additional item, return to this page to select the next item. This allows each participant to purchase exactly the films that they want to attend and lets us know who plans to attend which meeting. We will also leave the Ciné Salon page open until the last week of the session, to allow additional participants to register.
