I’m delighted to join forces and launch this new VoD platform to enhance our visibility in Sweden and attract audiences interested in discovering outstanding art-house films. 

Folkets Bio Head of Communications Anna Harding added, “We have so many great films in our catalogue and people frequently ask us where they can see them online legally.
