We are incredibly excited to announce the launch of our brand new streaming service, Virtual Screening Room!

Filmbankmedia's Virtual Screening Room (VSR) is a service that allows the streaming of films to anywhere in the UK and allows film societies, community cinemas and other venues to replicate the experience of scheduled film screenings virtually. Our chat functionality allows you and your attendees to discuss the films you've just watched - even when you can't all be together in the same room. For more information please have a look at our VSR presentation.

We're pleased to offer some of the most acclaimed and important independent cinema around, as well as new titles like Monsoon, and the award-winning Miss Juneteenth. This month we're celebrating International Women's Day with our collection of female-led films.

You can check out the complete catalogue of film titles that are available to book for viewing in our Virtual Screening Room here
