Your Choice, Your Voice
Our community chooses what screens next.
Three films. One screening. You decide.
Why We Exist
Too many stories we love never reach our screens.
Lost in streaming queues. Buried by algorithms. Or never making it to theaters at all, written off by decision-makers who don't know us.
The films that speak to us, that honor our roots, that deserve to be experienced together… they slip past us, watched alone if watched at all.
How It Works
Three ways to gather
Theater Experiences
Reserve your spot for a communal screening. You're only charged when the community commits—when enough of us say yes, the screening is greenlit.
No risk. No wasted tickets. Just communities bringing stories to screens.
Community-powered screenings
The Call
Your voice shapes what stories we bring to screen. Every reservation is an act of cultural presence—a vote for the films our communities deserve.
Check in to unlock voting. The more you show up, the more voice you have.
Your Choice, Your Voice
The Flow
The Flow is our curated broadcast of culturally enriching and spiritually meaningful stories. From cinema and shows to live events and special gathering moments, it's a shared experience designed to nourish the soul.
Same film. Same moment. Different living rooms, one shared experience.
Building momentum
Who We Are
We're Building the Table.
We are a team of creatives, revolutionaries, dreamers, truth-seekers, and builders who decided to create what we've always been waiting for.
A platform built for community and connection, to champion culturally-rooted and spiritually meaningful stories and content.
A company that decided to claim agency in a world that's always telling us what's valuable, marketable, or worth backing.
A team that is not asking for a seat at someone else's table, but decided to build our own to celebrate and elevate artists, griots, and truth-tellers to all be in Overflow.
