SPOTLIGHT:
KASHMIR - A REGION IN CONFLICT

Fresh. Bold. Award-winning.

At Iris Indie Global, we champion filmmaker-driven stories designed for global audiences and streaming platforms alike. Our curated slate features 20+ new distinctive titles—ranging from psychological thrillers and intimate dramas to gripping true stories, international coming-of-age journeys, and genre-bending noir.

Our Cannes 2025 lineup exemplifies this spirit. Love Me Dead stars RJ Mitte and Dove Cameron in a twisted tale of obsession and revenge. The Collaborator, based on Mirza Waheed’s acclaimed novel, follows four best friends who come of age in the shadow of conflict in Kashmir. The Big Dog is a razor-sharp Australian dark comedy exploring family, power, and control. Along the Way: Director’s Cut offers a newly completed version of Andrew Bowen’s emotionally resonant debut, crafted the way it was always meant to be seen. Tonic, a moody jazz noir, features standout performances from Billy Blair, Lori Petty, and Ed Westwick. And Do No Harm is a tense, topical medical thriller exploring the ethics of modern healthcare that stars Ronnie Chieng.

All screeners are available now on RightsTrade and Cinando.
