CAN I WATCH THE FILMS AT MY COTTAGE?
Yes, you will be able to watch from your Ontario cottage (subject to wifi/internet availability).
However please remember, your ticket voucher is paired with the WIFI used when you first press play, meaning a film must be completed using the same network.
We use adaptive bitrate streaming which means the streaming quality will automatically adjust based on your internet speed. If your internet connection is poor or inconsistent you may experience problems during playback. If you’re on wifi, try moving closer to your router.

Please note that cast is not available from Iphone and Ipad.
