HITS, written and directed by David Cross, is a dark comedy that explores fame and delusion in 21st century America: one nation, united by upvotes. It’s also the first feature film to be distributed in collaboration with fans. HITS’ Kickstarter campaign for a pay-what-you-want theatrical release met its funding goal in less than three weeks.

Sustainable filmmaking requires more flexibility, creativity, and community around distribution models. The HITS campaign shows the power of direct-to-fan — the ability of a film to go from festival to fifty cities, as a result of direct engagement and collaboration with audiences.
