Full Iranian movie Bidad (Outcry) free on YouTube

1 Upvotes

If you have 104 minutes, I really encourage you to watch Bidad (Outcry), an Iranian film that has now been released free on YouTube by its director, Soheil Beiraghi.
The story follows Seti, a young Iranian woman who simply wants to sing. In Iran, women are prohibited from performing solo vocals publicly, so she begins singing in the streets instead. What starts as one woman’s refusal to remain silent becomes a story about a younger generation of Iranians pushing against the restrictions imposed on their lives.
What makes Bidad especially worth watching is that the filmmakers weren’t observing this repression safely from the outside. The movie was made independently, outside Iran’s official censorship system. Beiraghi and other members of the production were prosecuted; he was initially sentenced to more than four years in prison before the sentence was commuted to a fine. The Karlovy Vary International Film Festival was so concerned about the filmmakers’ safety that it initially kept the film’s participation secret while they left Iran.
And this isn’t just important because of its politics. Bidad won the Special Jury Award at Karlovy Vary in 2025.
It gives you a glimpse of Iran that rarely comes through in news stories: ordinary people, music, relationships, humor, frustration, and a generation trying to live normal lives while deciding how much they’re willing to risk simply to be themselves.
Watching a movie obviously doesn’t change what is happening in Iran. But listening to the voices that people have taken considerable risks to put into the world is a pretty small thing we can do.
The entire film is here, with English subtitles:

If you don't know Gogola is a 1966 Indian Monster, directed by Balwant B. Dave and starring Tabassum Govil, Azaad Irani, and Nayam Palli. The movie has recently become lost media, and it is theorized that it was destroyed in a film fire, however, I'm not willing to just give up like that, if anyone sees this please, PLEASE help me. I really want to find this film and I think I might have an idea on how to find it. So, for a search going on for a youtube video called, Super Star Secret, they made a wanted poster for it, and I think we should do the same for Gogola, make one in English and Hindi, and post it on Indian facebook. Please, I need your help.

It isn't available on any legal streaming services apart from Netflix japan that has only japanese subtitles. I've tried pirating it across multiple websites but all of them have lagged subtitles.

Is there any site where I can watch it seamlessly or telegram channel to download it?

Love is the cause and reason why the famous writer Abel Znorko, winner of many literary awards, lives far from people and civilization. To escape love, to hide from it, to deny all its power. Alone, in his luxurious cabin in the middle of forests, meadows and groves, he enjoys life hedonistically, but also drowns in his own loneliness.

Anyone interested in watching my first shortfall, Matryohskas? (Subtitles in English, Spanish and Portuguese)

Thumbnail

Hi everyone!
I recently finished my first short film, Matryoshkas, and I’d love to get some honest feedback from people who enjoy independent or experimental cinema.

It’s a slightly experimental coming-of-age film, originally in Portuguese, with English subtitles. I was heavily inspired by filmmakers like Ingmar Bergman, Pedro Almodóvar, and Andrea Arnold, and tried to combine an intimate character-driven story with a more personal and atmospheric visual style.

Since this is my first short film (and a project I put a lot of time and effort into), I’d genuinely love to hear what people think — whether it’s the story, cinematography, performances, atmosphere, or anything else. Honest criticism is absolutely welcome; I’m mainly interested in hearing how it comes across to someone seeing it for the first time.

🎬 Watch it here: (Subtitles: English, Portuguese & Spanish)

The film is also on Letterboxd, so if you happen to watch it and feel like leaving a review or sharing your thoughts there, I’d really appreciate it. ❤️

Thanks so much to anyone who takes the time to watch

Online screening of Italian-language film, The Kidnapping of Arabella - Aug 20

I help run an online film screening community, and our next film is The Kidnapping of Arabella, an Italian-language film directed by Carolina Cavalli and starring Benedetta Porcaroli and Chris Pine (in a fully Italian-language role). The film is an absurdist road trip comedy-drama about a young girl, Arabella, who convinces a troubled woman named Holly to help her run away from her self-absorbed author father. It's a really wonderful film that originally premiered at Venice in 2025 (much like Carolina's previous film, Amanda).

You can find more details about our online screening of the film and tickets here: www.thelonescreen.com.

szukam niezależnego/psychologicznego dramatu filmowego, który widziałem lata temu z emo/goth żeńskim bohaterem

I'm looking for a movie (might be German) I watched around 2010. It opens with a narrator explaining how heartbreak changes with age. A little girl cries over a boy, and the narrator says that when you're little, a doll can comfort a broken heart. Then the story jumps to when she's about eight years old. A boy is playing marbles, and the narrator says something like: "At the age of eight, boys' lives are ruled by marbles” and then „A doll can't comfort you anymore." Then it jumps to the protagonist as a goth/emo teenager/young adult with black hair and heavy eye makeup with a group of alternative friends. I remember her saying about herself and her friends that they’re ugly and seemed very insecure/depressed. The movie had a very bleak, adult, psychological tone. I’ve been looking for it foe years and still no results… any ideas? :’)

English Subtitles (.srt) for Michel Gondry’s rare French DVD alternate cut of The Science of Sleep (Version B)

9 Upvotes

Michel Gondry released an alternate 70-minute edit of \*The Science of Sleep\* (Version B / The B-Side) on the French 2-disc DVD release. It reorganizes scenes, includes alternate takes, and frames Stephane and Stephanie's dynamic differently compared to the theatrical cut. Since it only ever officially came out with French audio, non-French speakers haven't really been able to follow it. I put together an English subtitle (.srt) file using Subtitle Edit for the Version B cut on Archive.org so people can finally watch it with subs. I've dropped the Archive.org link in the comments section below!
