Quarantine Film Festival: May 2020
BY SCOTTIE KNOLLIN
Still staying home? We’ve got your May home-viewing schedule covered!
Like in April, we’ve curated a list of modern cinema classics and fun audience favorites that are streaming on the most popular streaming sites. And, for each screening, we’ve selected a nonprofit to support. Help us be a force of good and stream some of cinema’s bests while making a difference.
The schedule below is subject to change. Quarantine Screenings are sponsored by NDFS and are not affiliated with the promoted nonprofit (though, we’re sure they’re happy to be featured).
To participate, press play at the allotted showtime and follow the accompanying hashtag on Twitter for conversation and trivia throughout the film. And, since you’re not spending money at the cinema, consider donating at least $5 to the featured nonprofit as a sign of goodwill as we navigate these uncharted and isolated waters.
