INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE with Greg Laemmle & Raphael Sbarge

by GREG LAEMMLE and RAPHAEL SBARGE

The people, films, and ideas keeping independent cinema alive. INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE is a weekly film podcast and video series exploring independent film, international cinema, theatrical exhibition, and the creative process behind the movies that stay with us. Hosted by Greg Laemmle, president of Laemmle Theatres, and Emmy Award-winning actor and director Raphael Sbarge, the show goes behind the screen with the filmmakers, actors, writers, producers, distributors, programmers, and theater owners shaping cinema today. From new arthouse releases and Oscar contenders to repertory classics and the changing business of film distribution, each episode offers thoughtful, insider conversations about cinematic craft, film culture, and why seeing movies together still matters. Whether you’re a dedicated cinephile, an emerging filmmaker, an industry professional, or simply looking for your next unforgettable film, INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE invites you into a worldwide community that believes cinema is more than content—it is one of our most vital art forms.
