Local indie cinema, The Projector, has shuttered its doors for the month of April, so to raise support, they’re releasing movies on demand. If you’d like to support them – while watching something other than Netflix – you can check out their latest release, Sorry We Missed You, which was nominated for a Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2019.

My parents and grandparents are antsy, but I don’t want them to go out. WHAT TO DO?

Listen to the first Harry Potter book for free

If you’re anything like us, you’re doubling down on chores as a means of light exercise. But that doesn’t make them any less boring. Transport yourself out of the house and into Hogwarts by downloading Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, narrated by Stephen Fry, on Audible. If you’d rather access the e-book version, you can check it out on Overdrive. Both versions are free for the entirety of this month, so go download them while you can!

Audiobook version available here, ebook available here
