Liquid Media Group (NASDAQ:YVR) is excited to announce their collaboration with Eluvio to showcase iNDIEFLIX’s original documentary ‘ANGST.’ The Eluvio Content Fabric is a utility blockchain network for owner-controlled storage, distribution, and monetization of digital content at scale. It provides live and file-based content publishing, transcoding, packaging, sequencing, and dynamic and static distribution, and minting of derivative NFTs for all ranges of content experiences.The first-ever public streaming of the documentary ‘ANGST’ kicked off on the 21st of January, and will be shown exclusively on Eluvio’s site for 10 days only.
‘ANGST’ was created to raise awareness around the topic of mental health and to destigmatize conversations surrounding anxiety. The 10-day streaming event will be raising funds for a few notable organizations: Jack.org, Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation, and the iNDIEFLIX Foundation, as these organizations advocate for mental health awareness.
This streaming collaboration allows ‘ANGST’ to have its first online public debut. Prior to this opportunity, the documentary had been accessible only in live community settings, where it has touched the lives of 2 million people worldwide. In addition, the California school board has implemented the documentary into the mandatory statewide education curriculum. As mental health issues are at an all-time high in the lives of young people, the state of California is using ‘ANGST’ and other resources developed by iNDIEFLIX to address this crisis with their students.
Blockchain streaming is also an interest of iNDIEFLIX that relates to their company’s mission. This type of technology will be aiding in the small film products main goals; providing a hopeful and inspiring film to young adults who are struggling worldwide, promoting engagement through the iNDIEFLIX Discord channel, and raising money for three important organizations that advocate for mental health awareness, including their own iNDIEFLIX Foundation.
