Bring a film to FindImpact-led distribution
Every story has a world around it.
Find helps you discover it.
Find is a new release channel for your film. It reaches audiences through the organizations they already trust, with community screenings and watch at home, licensed at scale.
Where Find fits
Films already reach people in three familiar ways. Find adds a fourth.
Find works alongside the channels you already know. It reaches people through the organizations and communities they already trust.
The opportunity
The audience for your film is already gathered. It's just not in a cinema.
Charities, schools, universities, employers, clubs, health services and member networks spend every day with the people your film was made for.
They are always looking for something that opens a conversation, moves people and gives them a reason to come together. A great film does exactly that. Until now there hasn't been a simple way for them to license one at scale, or for you to reach them. Find is that way.
How it works
From the people around your film to licensed screenings, in four steps.
Map
Your team spends about 15 minutes lighting up the network around the film: investors, partners, communities, media and the organizations that would love to have made it.
Match
Find identifies the partners most likely to take the film, and how each would use it: screenings, campaigns, programs or gifts to their members.
License
One organization can license hundreds of community screenings or thousands of watch-at-home passes in a single agreement.
Deliver
Find and Wonder run the screenings, the home access and the reporting, so you can see where the film went and who it reached.
What it means for rights holders
More life, more reach and more revenue from the same film.
A new revenue line
Licensing income that sits alongside cinema, streaming and physical, not in place of them.
Deals at enterprise scale
One agreement can cover hundreds of screenings or thousands of homes, instead of one ticket at a time.
A longer life for the film
Organizations keep booking a film for as long as its subject matters to them, well beyond the release window.
Clear and transparent
A revenue share based on licensing and sales outcomes, with reporting on every screening and pass.
Illustrative case studies
Two ways a Find deal can look.
Social impact illustrative case studyThe Long Table · a documentary about loneliness
The Long Table: a feature documentary about loneliness, and the people bringing neighbors back together.
A small independent documentary has a festival run, a short theatrical release and a streaming deal. Its producers map the network around the film with Find and light up three partners who care deeply about the subject.
community screenings in town halls and libraries, each followed by a local conversation.
campuses screening it in student wellbeing week, plus 2,000 watch-at-home passes for students.
watch-at-home passes for staff as part of a workplace wellbeing program.
This example is illustrative and shows how a deal can be structured. The film, partners, numbers and revenue value are not a real result.
Corporate engagement illustrative case studyOpen Home · a romantic comedy about buying a first home
Open Home: a romantic comedy about a couple buying their first home, and finding out what home really means.
A feel-good romantic comedy follows a young couple through the open homes, bidding wars and second thoughts of buying their first place, and discovering that home is the life you build together. Find sees the natural fit with a national real estate franchise whose whole business is helping people find home, then shapes and brings them the deal.
franchise offices each license the film on a $5,500 package, less than the commission on a single sale.
for each office to screen the film anywhere in its community, from local halls to client evenings.
passes per office, shared with buyers, sellers and neighbors as a warm way to start a conversation and generate leads.
This example is illustrative and shows how a deal can be structured. The film, partners, numbers and revenue value are not a real result.

Questions
What filmmakers and distributors usually ask.
Does Find replace my other release windows?
No. Find is an additional channel that works alongside cinema, streaming and physical. It reaches people through organizations, not through the outlets you already use.
How do rights holders get paid?
Through a clear and transparent revenue share based on licensing and sales outcomes, with reporting on every screening and every watch-at-home pass.
Which territories does Find cover?
Find operates globally.
What kinds of films work best?
Films with a clear reason for people to gather around them: documentaries, dramas and family films whose subject matters to a community, a cause or a group of people.
What do you need from me to start?
The film's details and key art, and about 15 minutes from each person in your team to map the network around the film. We'll send you a private link for that.
