Our Story

Independent film deserves a
real home

Fylm TV was built because the best films in the world are often the ones nobody has heard of. We’re changing that.

Why we built this

Independent filmmakers pour their lives into their work. They win festivals, move audiences, and tell stories that major studios won’t touch. But when it comes to distribution, the system is stacked against them. Rights grabs, exclusivity traps, opaque revenue models, and platforms that bury indie titles under a mountain of licensed blockbusters.

Fylm TV is the platform we wanted to exist. A place where independent films are the entire point — not an afterthought. Where filmmakers keep their rights, earn real revenue, and get their work in front of audiences who genuinely want to discover it.

We’re in pre-launch right now, with over 90 films already submitted and a community of 18,000+ filmmakers, cinephiles, and advocates. The streaming library is coming. The infrastructure is being built the right way.

What we stand for

Independent First

Every decision we make starts with one question: does this serve independent filmmakers and their audiences? Corporate interests do not get a seat at the table.

Rights Stay With You

Filmmakers retain full ownership of their work. Always. We believe creators should never have to choose between exposure and control.

Free to Watch

Viewers should never have to pay to discover great cinema. Fylm TV is free forever, ad-supported, just like broadcast television was meant to be.

Global by Design

Independent film does not have a zip code. Our platform is built to reach audiences in every country, not just major markets.
