"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Across three features, essayist-turned-filmmaker Kogonada has established himself as a kind of experimental cinematic therapist in search of the ideal conditions under which to probe the human mind. His debut Columbus (2017) threw two strangers (John Cho and Haley Lu Richardson) up against an entire city of mid-century modern architecture, all smooth lines, bare concrete, and nowhere to hide. After Yang (2021) forced a couple (Jodie Turner-Smith and Colin Farrell) to evaluate their work as parents via a defunct robot with a hidden memory bank."
The Independent covers reproductive rights, climate change, Big Tech, and investigative political finance. The outlet produces documentaries that spotlight American women fighting for reproductive rights and keeps reporting free by eschewing paywalls. Donations fund on-the-ground journalists who report multiple perspectives and investigate matters such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC. Kogonada's three features function as experimental cinematic therapy, probing memory, childhood wounds, and modern loneliness through precise visuals and character encounters. Columbus set strangers against mid-century modern architecture; After Yang used a defunct robot to examine parenting; A Big Bold Beautiful Journey reunites actors in an immersive, memory-recall road trip.
