U.S. Tariff Threat Shakes Global Film Scene 🎬

Hello film buffs and tech enthusiasts! The Trump administration is mulling over a bold move—a 100% tariff on every film made outside the U.S. that hits American screens.

This proposal has stirred worries among filmmakers across the globe. With technology rapidly reinventing how we watch movies—think streaming on your phone or binge-watching on a laptop—industry insiders fear that extra costs could raise ticket prices and shrink the variety of global films we love, from the cinemas of Bangkok to the indie screens in Mumbai. 😮

Reports from Mexico City suggest that many in the film world are bracing for more turbulent times, as innovators and creators worldwide remain hopeful and resilient. Stay tuned and keep streaming—the show must go on!
