On Friday, April 23, director Alexis Morante’s documentary Heroes: Silence and Rock & Roll makes its way to the streaming platform after originally premiering earlier this year.

‘Shadow and Bone’
Netflix is taking viewers into the Shadow Fold with the debut of its highly-anticipated original series Shadow and Bone.

‘Tell Me When’
