Why Do Filmmakers use Gathr?

Because filmmakers can drive revenue and impact by exhibiting to their community, virtually anywhere at any time, while eliminating their distribution costs and mitigating their financial risk.

Also...

Creative Freedom

Nowhere else can you find a technology platform to field demand for your film events and their post-screening panel bookings.

Financial Control

Film booking and ticketing are on a single platform that can charge a fixed fee, per person fee, or a percentage of ticket sales. And you're in control.

Your Audience

Because your film is booked and ticketed through Gathr's platform you have direct relationships with both the event's organizer and its audience.

"With every screening event on Gathr we've reached hundreds of citizens, politicians, NGOs, experts, and activists from around the globe, typically 30 to 40 countries per event. Our objective is to raise awareness of the humanitarian crisis in Yemen and to activate policy change for peace and rebuilding. Gathr is enabling us to reach these goals for the film, while also reaching film industry insiders."
