Your picks, as trailers.
You write about films. Your readers trust your taste. But your recommendations live as text and posters: nothing plays.
Give zinema your titles. You get back one link: a page where your selection plays as trailers, in your order, on any screen. Put it in your newsletter, your post, your bio.

How it works
1. Write your list. Up to 20 films or shows. A selection, not a directory.
2. Compose your link. No account, no tool. Just a URL:
zinema.tv/list?t=Sicario+2015,Hell+or+High+Water+2016,No+Country+for+Old+Men+2007&title=Border+noir,+ranked
3. Share it. The page exists from the first click. It never expires: a reader can open it three weeks after your send, it still plays.
What we promise
- Your order, exactly. Your list is your editorial work. We never reorder it, never inject anything into it, never turn it into a "for you". The film you ranked third is third for everyone.
- The link doesn't die. Newsletters get archived, links get clicked late. Yours keeps working.
- Free, no account. Composing a link costs nothing and asks nothing. Your readers don't need an account to watch either.
- Nobody is profiled. We don't know who your readers are, and we don't ask. No sign-up wall, no identity. That's not a setting: it's how zinema is built.
What's in it for us, plainly
A reader who likes what your selection made them feel can add titles to a watchlist and step into zinema, the trailer feed that finds your next watch. That's the whole deal: your page stays yours, the door to zinema stays ours. Watching is free and stays free. zinema is paid by the supply side (distributors, venues), never by viewers, and never by selling rank.
Good to know
- Films and shows both work. Add the year to lift ambiguity
(
Dune+2021). - A missing trailer fixes itself. If we don't have a playable trailer for one of your titles yet, the page shows the rest, and the missing one appears on its own once we've found and verified it. Same link, no action from you.
- Name your page if you want:
&title=..., up to 60 characters. Otherwise we'll title it neutrally ("5 films, in trailers"). - The page shows trailers and film facts: synopsis, year, runtime. It doesn't list where to stream: that belongs to your reader's own zinema, after the door.
