Kanopy Help

Browsing for a film

On the Kanopy homepage, you'll see "shelves" of film collections with a common subject or theme. Select a film from a shelf to go the title details page, where you can start watching, read the film's description, or add it to your watchlist.

Note: The films and collections displayed on the homepage vary by institution and change over time.

To see a specific category of films, hover over Browse at the top of the page on the website or tap Browse in the bar at the bottom of the mobile app. Then, select a category to browse films with that theme. For example, if you select "Classic Cinema," you might see shelves like "Classic Drama" and "Classic Comedy."
