Jolt Powers New Era for Independent Film Distribution With Slate of Impactful Releases
Jolt, the AI-driven platform helping independent films reach audiences and generate revenue, today unveiled its latest slate of bold, socially resonant films—including the highly anticipated premiere of Can't Look Away: The Case Against Social Media, a documentary feature film that exposes the real-world consequences of dangerous social media algorithms that exploit and endanger vulnerable young users. Other films joining Jolt’s roster include Jon Glassberg’s Girl Climber, showcasing renowned climber Emily Harrington as she defies expectations by taking on the challenge to free climb El Capitan in under 24 hours, all while confronting the relentless pressure to prove herself in a male-dominated sport; Wendy Lobel’s ANXIETY CLUB, a funny and relatable exploration of anxiety and treatment methods through the lens of some of today’s most brilliant comedians; and Dan Algrant’s Cathedrals, following the filmmaker on a journey to reconnect with two Black collaborators from a film made nearly 50 years ago.
