For churches and small groups

Movie nights that start conversations.

Films we've watched and checked for groups of every age, each with an honest parents' guide and a question to get people talking afterwards.

How to run a group movie night

  1. 1

    Pick a film

    Choose from the films below, or any review on the site. Each one has an age guide and a parents' guide, so you know what's in it before your group does.

  2. 2

    Check the license

    Showing a film to a group outside a home usually counts as a public performance. Most US churches cover this with an annual church movie license. Check yours before you advertise the night.

  3. 3

    Watch together

    In your church hall, a living room or online. For a group that streams at home on its own, Angel Guild members can watch Angel films whenever suits them.

  4. 4

    Talk about it

    Use the conversation starter on each film below, then let the group take it where it wants to go. Thirty minutes is plenty.
