A person watches every film
There is no open upload button. Every submission is reviewed before it is published, which is the only reason a small catalogue can be worth trusting.

Some films deserve
better than the scroll.
Lannore is a curated house for independent cinema. Shorts, feature-length and commercial films, documentary, animation, series and work beyond the usual categories — chosen one at a time, opened to an audience that showed up on purpose, and paid out to the people who made them.
The platform is live. Browse the catalogue, follow filmmakers or open a submission workspace.
The quiet part
A film can disappear in a place that never rejected it.
Upload it anywhere and it is accepted instantly. It will also land between a recipe video and a game clip, get about eleven seconds to justify itself, and be measured by a system that cannot tell a slow first act from a mistake.
Nobody turned it down. It simply never got a room — no wall, no light, nobody to introduce it, and no way to tell whether the four hundred views were people or noise.
Curation is not a gate we enjoy keeping. It is the only way we can promise a viewer that the next film is worth their evening — and the only way your film is the one being promised.
What we will and will not doFilms premiere on a date
A countdown, a room that fills up and, when the team offers it, the director staying for questions. Not a quiet appearance in row four of a carousel.
Money is traceable to the film
Every payout is itemised by film and by revenue source. You can see what a rental earned, what a premiere earned, and what was deducted before it got to you.

lasting place.

For filmmakers
You keep the film. You keep the rights. We earn when you do.
The submission is free because charging filmmakers for the chance to be seen is a business model we would rather not have.
- Submission Free. Every submission gets a real answer.
- Licence Non-exclusive by default, with defined territories and terms. An optional 30-day first-run window if a premiere calls for it.
- Rentals 80% to you, 20% to Lannore, on net revenue.
- Super-Danke 90% to you.
- Analytics Qualified watch time, completion rate and where viewers left — not a view counter that rewards a thumbnail.
- Payouts Itemised per film and per revenue source, with an audit trail.
- Leaving Under the terms you agreed, with takedown and archive rules written down in advance.
Premieres
A film only
opens once.
On most platforms a release is a database write. Here it is a time of day. A countdown runs, a room fills, the film starts for everyone at once, and the director can stay afterwards to answer for it.
It is the oldest trick in cinema, and it still works: people watch differently when they know someone else is watching too.

For viewers
No autoplay. No algorithm apologising for itself.
Rent one — or choose three
€1.99 for a short, €3.99 for a feature, 48 hours to watch it. No membership you have to remember to cancel. The €9.99 Film Pass adds 3 credits for eligible rentals, valid for 12 months.
Take a seat at a premiere
€4.99 standard; €6.99–9.99 for extended live events for a scheduled screening and, when the team offers it, a live Q&A with the director afterwards.
Follow the filmmakers
Not channels. People — with credits, a body of work, and a notification when the next one opens.
Vote where it counts
The Audience Award is decided by viewers who actually watched, with one verified vote each and a minimum of 50% of the film.
How it works
From submission to premiere
-
01
Open a submission workspace
Create a verified account and start without a fee or mandatory creator subscription. Private film material and rights declarations stay inside the protected app workflow.
-
02
We watch it and answer
A real response either way. If it is a fit we talk about timing, territories and price before anything is signed.
-
03
We open it properly
Poster, credits, subtitles, an editorial introduction and a premiere date. Your film arrives introduced rather than uploaded.
-
04
You get paid and you can see why
Rentals, tickets and Super-Danke land in your account itemised by film and source, with the deductions shown rather than summarised.
Principles
Ten things we
will not do.
A platform is easiest to judge by what it has ruled out. Four of ours, in full:
- No open mass upload without review.
- No paid editorial placement — reach is never for sale.
- No exclusivity by default; the rights stay yours.
- No revenue share that we cannot show you the maths for.
- Read all ten
