ABOUT US
ONE STOP ACCESS TO OVER 100 CINEMA WEBSITES
The Film Cooperative is a network of over 100 independent cinema websites. It offers distributors the opportunity to promote their films in most prominent positions, using sales-driving ads that link directly to booking.
Film and lifestyle orientated brands use the network to cost-effectively reach a highly engaged online film audience.
The ads and trailers on this page are for recent campaigns that we have run or will be running shortly. In addition to running the advertising we can also act as a single point of access to these cinemas for distributing trailers, social media assets and leveraging added-value coverage for films and brands.

Giant
Based on the remarkable real-life story of legendary British-Yemeni boxing champion Prince Naseem “Naz” Hamed. Charting his inspiring rags-to-riches underdog tale from his humble beginnings in Sheffield to becoming champion of the world and a global sporting icon in the 1990s, the film explores the unlikely and tender relationship between Naz and his Irish boxing trainer Brendan Ingle; and the instrumental role that Ingle played on his road to success. In cinemas, January 9.
H is for Hawk
When Helen’s beloved father passes away, she is knocked sideways by grief and loses herself in memories of their time birding and exploring the natural world together. She becomes obsessed with the idea of training her own goshawk, and so she brings the fearsome bird Mabel home to her life as a graduate fellow at Cambridge. Helen fills the freezer with hawk food and turns off her phone, ready to embark on the long, strange business of trying to train this wildest of animals.
28 Years later: The Bone Temple
In a continuation of the epic story, Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) finds himself in a shocking new relationship – with consequences that could change the world as they know it – and Spike’s (Alfie Williams) encounter with Jimmy Crystal (Jack O’Connell) becomes a nightmare he can’t escape. In the world of The Bone Temple, the infected are no longer the greatest threat to survival – the inhumanity of the survivors can be stranger and more terrifying.

SUPPORTING CINEMA WEBSITES
The Film Cooperative was set up over 10 years ago to provide cinema websites with an additional online revenue stream to complement their onscreen and in-foyer ad revenue. It provides quality brand ads from market leading suppliers and also higher value campaigns from distributors and film or lifestyle orientated brands who are happy to pay a premium for reaching a known cinema-going audience in a high quality environment.
Unlike most ad serving solutions we are not a faceless algorithm. We have humans to help you implement our service or to talk to in the unlikely event that you have a query. We are very easy to deal with and offer prompt and regular payment.
NEW CINEMA WEBSITES ARE WELCOME
We’re always looking for new cinema exhibitors to join the network – the bigger we are the better we can be!
