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.A scarred stranger shows up on the doorstep of suburban couple Norma and Arthur Lewis and offers them a beguiling choice.
He gives them a box with a button inside it. Should they push the button they will receive $1m, but someone they have never met will die. They make their choice, unleashing a chain of events that changes their lives and brings them in touch with realms they could never imagine. This is a return to form for Richard Kelly, the director of Donnie Darko, after the disaster of Southland Tales. The premise, from a story by Richard Matheson, is intriguing and the Seventies setting is superbly atmospheric.
