Currents is a new streaming service for short films and web series. Instead of requiring viewers to make accounts on the site, we give them the option to subscribe via email to any filmmakers that interest them.
We're adding new films and filmmakers as often as we can. To see what's streaming now, visit our home page.
To read the filmmaker notes and viewer comments from recent releases, see the filmmaker newsletters linked in our releases home page.
If you subscribe to a filmmaker, you'll receive an email each time they release something new on the site, usually with a personal note from the filmmaker.
Since we don't have any social media or a general release email list, this is a nice way to a) show the filmmaker in question your support, and b) make sure you don't miss any of their new releases.
To subscribe, simply click the next to the filmmaker's name, and/or see the recommended filmmaker email lists on our main releases page.
To unsubscribe from a filmmaker, either hit the "unsubscribe" at the bottom of an email you've received, or manage all your subscriptions from your subscription settings page.
We're starting small and trying to scale up at a reasonable pace, so at the moment we can't accept outside submissions. If that changes, we'll leave information about how to submit a film here.
If you notice that something on the site isn't working, feel free to contact us and let us know. We're a very small team, but we'll try to address the issue as soon as we can.
