about
Cinema Sugar creates digital content that gets to the heart of why movies matter, how they connect us, and what they mean to everyone—from industry professionals to casual moviegoers. We believe movies make life sweeter.
Based in Chicago but writing from everywhere, we do interviews, essays, listicles, reviews, and more. We’ve also covered the Chicago International Film Festival, Chicago Critics Film Festival, and the Blue Whiskey Independent Film Festival.
contribute
We welcome contributors who believe in our mission and want to share their own love of movies in the form of essays, listicles, or social engagement pieces. (See our past themes and post archive for examples.)
