The sheer number of films streaming on Netflix on any given day can make finding and deciding which films to watch an arduous journey through an overabundance of content, navigating with an interface that’s not exactly the most conducive to discovery.
To assist on this cinematic journey, IndieWire runs a monthly series that highlights movies and television series worth streaming on every major platform in the U.S., including Netflix. But, as an extension of that popular ongoing series, we’ve also curated lists of films that specifically tell Black stories and are streaming on those same major streaming platforms.
Among this month’s offerings on Netflix: several feature debuts, including Spike Lee’s “She’s Gotta Have It,” Ryan Coogler’s “Fruitvale Station,” Mati Diop’s “Atlantics,” and Numa Perrier’s “Jezebel.” Check out our picks below.
