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.

For a period drama about the last year of Tolstoy's life, and the ideological conflict between his aristocratic wife and the most committed disciples of his cult of socialist asceticism, TLS is a deceptively light and modern film.

Christopher Plummer deservedly earnt his first Oscar nomination; Helen Mirren, similarly nominated, is entertainingly OTT as Sophia. It's also a film in which love triumphs over ideas and ideals: one for romantics rather than scholars.
