Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. 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.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Was The Shining Stanley Kubrick's way of admitting that he faked footage of the Apollo moon landings?

This diverting documentary offers five different idiosyncratic interpretations of the revered 1980s horror film, pairing the voice-overs of the unseen theorists with a witty montage of clips. Ultimately, Room 237 is less about Kubrick and The Shining than it is about the powerful spell which some films can cast on their viewers.
