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.

Chie Hayakawa, Japan 2025, 120' c6.5

1987, in the suburbs of Tokyo. Eleven-year-old Fuki is trying to come to terms with her father’s illness. Whilst her mother is completely absorbed by her work, looking after her husband and an affair, Fuki finds herself facing a summer of uncertainty. Driven by youthful impulses, she delves deeper and deeper into her own imaginary world with each passing day.

Gilles de Maistre, France 2026, 91' c6.4

14-year-old Sun has written and successfully published a story based on an incredible story told by her late grandfather about a wild child called Hadara, who is saved by a group of ostriches when he becomes separated from his family in a storm, and is then raised in the desert amid a host of wild animals, including his best friend, a desert fox. When Sun is invited to travel to the Sahara by a local community who has heard about her book, she meets Kharouba, a Nomad girl of her own age, and realizes there may be much more to Hadara than just a character in a bedtime story.
