Filmin renews its deal with A24 and will premiere new series exclusively this autumn

Filmin has renewed its deal with A24 to bring some of the most exciting series and films in contemporary screen culture to its catalogue. Having added key titles from the US studio in recent years, the platform now confirms the arrival this autumn of new productions that strengthen a partnership defined by a shared commitment to auteur voices, creative risk and some of the most celebrated fiction of recent years.

This new chapter will be led by three series premieres arriving exclusively on Filmin: “The Gallows Pole”, a series never before released in Spain, and the eagerly awaited second seasons of “Such Brave Girls” and “Dreaming Whilst Black”.

The new A24 series on Filmin

One of the big highlights will be “The Gallows Pole” (pictured), the new series from Shane Meadows, an essential figure in 21st-century British screen culture and the creator of titles such as “This is England” (2006). Never before released in Spain, the series adapts the true story of the Cragg Vale Coiners, a gang of rural workers who in the 18th century ran one of the biggest financial frauds in British history.

With the humour, energy and deeply human outlook that run through all of Meadows’ work, “The Gallows Pole” turns historical drama into a way of reflecting today’s social injustices, making it one of the most distinctive offerings on television in recent years.

Also returning is “Such Brave Girls” with its second season. It is one of the great breakthroughs in recent British comedy and one of the titles most loved by Filmin audiences. Winner of the BAFTA for Best Scripted Comedy, the series created by and starring Kat Sadler follows two sisters and their mother as they get by amid impossible relationships, financial precarity and an endless capacity for questionable decisions.

The second season, recently released in the UK, shows once again why the series has become an instant cult favourite: an awkward, fierce and unapologetic comedy that finds humour where there would normally only be disaster.

Alongside it comes the second season of “Dreaming Whilst Black”. Created by and starring Adjani Salmon, who won the BAFTA Emerging Talent award for the original pilot, the series follows Kwabena, an aspiring filmmaker trying to break into an industry as coveted as it is inaccessible.

Now one of the most vibrant British comedies of recent years thanks to its mix of humour, autobiographical perspective and sharp observation of contemporary social and cultural dynamics, this new season follows its protagonist as he finally begins to get closer to the film world he had always imagined, only to discover that getting in does not necessarily mean finding his place in it.

New films for the catalogue

The deal is completed by the addition of several recent A24 films that further expand one of the most recognisable catalogues in independent cinema. Highlights include the exclusive Spanish premieres of “All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt”, a sensory experience and one of the most formally radical works of recent cinema, and “On Becoming a Guinea Fowl” (pictured), a brilliant and devastating family portrait shaped by grief, memory and inherited silences, as well as the return of “God’s Creatures”, an intense drama starring Emily Watson and Paul Mescal, and  “The Inspection”, a powerful autobiographical story about identity and belonging by Elegance Bratton.

All these additions arriving this autumn further confirm Filmin as a privileged space for discovering some of the most exciting voices in contemporary film and television.
