About cinefile

Cinefile is a Swiss film platform founded in 2018 that operates a comprehensive movie guide, a streaming service and a DVD/Blu-Ray rental service.

The streaming selection ranges from the latest cinema hits to classics and is based on the motto "Only Good Movies": We deliberately limit the range to a maximum of 1000 entertainment and arthouse films and update it on an ongoing basis. The five-strong selection team only selects films that are really worth seeing. All films are available in HD and original version with freely selectable subtitles, some also in German or French dubbed versions. The films can be streamed with all common browsers or via the Android TV app, which is available in the Google Play Store.

The complete range is available with the free Basic registration for individual rental or in the Take 2/3/4 subscriptions, which include 2, 3 or 4 films per month, or 12, 18 or 24 films per half-year with discounts of up to 50 percent.

The cinefile cinema guide offers a complete overview of the Swiss cinema program with all important information and reservation links for all films, including arthouse cinemas, film museums and open airs.

You can save all the cinema and streaming films that interest you in a personal watchlist.

Sirāt

Oliver Laxe, Spain 2025, 115' c7.0

A father and his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco. They’re searching for Mar — daughter and sister — who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties. Surrounded by electronic music and a raw, unfamiliar sense of freedom, they hand out her photo again and again. Hope is fading but they push through and follow a group of ravers heading to one last party in the desert. As they venture deeper into the burning wilderness, the journey forces them to confront their own limits.

My Childhood, My Country – 20 Years in Afghanistan

Phil Grabsky, UK 2021, 90' c7.5

From 2002 to 2021, this epoch-making documentary film follows an Afghan farm boy who initially lives with his family as refugees in caves, returns to his war-torn village, sees the Taliban withdraw and return, grows up to be a truant and coal shoveller out of sheer necessity, and finally moves to Kabul as a young family man, where he can turn his fate around yet, remains a pawn in the tragic history of his country. – CHARITY STREAMING: THE PROCEEDS WILL GO TO THE FAMILY OF THE PROTAGONIST.
