The Project

The Cosmonaut is a feature film project by Riot Cinema Collective that uses Internet to find funding and distribution, in a collaborative way and under freeCreative Commons licences.

Because we only do movies we want to watch and we distribute them the way we would like them to be distributed.

5 things which make it a different movie:

One

You produce the movie thanks to Crowdfunding. Starting form 2€ you can become a producer of our film and you'll always receive something in exchange. From 1000 € you become an investor sharing part of the benefits.

Two

Any item you buy from our Shop is money you're adding as a producer. You buy a 20€ item, you add 20€ for the production.

Three

We'll have a premier of the movie on Internet, free and in HD. Because we believe that's the future of Cinema.

Four

The entire project is Creative Commons. Copy it. Mix it. Distribute it, even commercially. Free. All the material generated, shooted, music, posters... at your disposition. You only need to quote us as original source whenever you use it and to apply the same licence.

Five

Crystal-clear information. Transparency. No secrets. We'll keep you up to date day by day about the progress of the movie. Our business model is also yours.
