Caachi | Online Indie Films
Sundance, Shmundance. There are better ways to catch indie films...right at home. Welcome to CAACHI, a new online indie film destination where you can download award-winning, DVD-resolution indie films.
At Caachi, filmmakers can distribute online, with 75% of the sales revenue going straight to the filmmakers. "Charles Choi and Tom Hicks started Caachi to showcase great films that differ from the cookie-cutter films made for mass audiences." Ah, so smart -- *tapping finger to forehead*.
They say: "At Caachi, we've come to the conclusion that taking the traditional route of pushing a film for nationwide theatrical, broadcast, and video release costs too much for most independent filmmakers - way too much to make a real living out of it anyways. We think online distribution is the way out, where filmmakers can get better exposure and better pay for their work. Nobody (including us) right now has a complete understanding about how online film distribution should work but we at least know one thing: filmmakers need to get paid."
Be sure to check out their wide-category of films, from FREE films, to African American films, Asian American films, Animated films, Latino films, Documentaries, Erotica, Horror, and more.
