How The Reelist Works | Set Up Your Reelist Pass & Stream Independent Films

how it works

JOin the CLub. SUpport Indie  FilmMakers.

When you stream films on The Reelist, you’re doing more than watching. You’re also helping us reinvest in the creators who make the important stories you might otherwise miss.

Get your pass to The Reelist

Purchase your pass for The Reelist via our partner Eventive.

Eventive is our streaming partner, and their platform’s mission is to make independent film more accessible and less complicated for more people.

Eventive uses a universal login. If you’ve ever used Eventive before (e.g., Sundance, Banff), sign in with that same email/password.
If you try to sign up with an email that already has an account, Eventive will prompt you to reset your password.

Purchase via Stripe.

After you’ve signed in or created your Eventive account, purchase your membership pass via Stripe.

Check your inbox for a confirmation email.

You’ll receive an order confirmation after purchase from Eventive.

VIA WEBSITE

Unlock your films

Visit each film’s catalog page and click “Stream now” to add it to your library. Find all of our available films on the catalog here. Please note:

Every title on The Reelist must be unlocked individually.
Each time you unlock a title, you’ll receive a confirmation email from Eventive.
If you’d like to watch on the web, click “Watch now” or continue to Step 3 to watch on your TV.

viA APP

Watch on your TV

Install The Reelist app on your streaming device.

Available on Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Google TV. Coming soon to Apple TV.

Forgot your password? Reset it now here.

Open the app → go to “My Content” → your unlocked films will appear → click the film →play

Heads up: Sync isn’t instant. Please allow 3-5 minutes after unlocking on the web for your movies to appear.

Be the first to know when new movies and bonus content rolls out.

New films drop on the first and third Thursday of each month. We’ll email you when new titles are available.  

Want to watch the latest releases?

Log into Eventive on the web (mobile or desktop), unlock the newest film(s), then open The Reelist app on your Roku, Fire TV, or Google TV device.

Troubleshooting

Quick solutions

I already have Eventive from a festival.

Use that same Eventive login for The Reelist. If you don’t remember it, follow the Reset Password instructions.

I created an Eventive account but didn’t get an email.

That’s expected. Emails are sent after purchase and after unlock, not after account creation.

My unlocked film isn’t appearing in the TV app.

Wait 3-5 minutes, then refresh the app/library. Confirm the newly unlocked title shows a “Watch Now” button on the web.

I don’t see the app on my device yet.

Rollout is happening by platform. Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Google TV are live now! Look for Apple to follow.
