Student Experience has partnered with Filmbankmedia to launch the Student Experience Movie Hub, a dedicated streaming platform packed with the latest and greatest films and TV shows. The Student Experience Movie Hub allows students to enjoy the latest content on their devices whilst also enabling the accommodation to host community-building film screening events.
What is the Student Experience Movie Hub?
Powered by Filmbankconnect, the Student Experience Movie Hub is fully branded with Student Experience’s colours and logo, creating a seamless, customised platform for students. The Student Experience Movie Hub offers a carefully curated selection of blockbuster films and hit TV series from Hollywood studios, including It Ends with Us, Joker: Folie à Deux, To the Moon, Beetlejuice, The White Lotus, The Big Bang Theory, and many more.
Key benefits
- Unparalleled access to premium content – students can enjoy a handpicked selection of the latest Hollywood films and TV shows streamed directly to their personal devices.
- A home-from-home experience for international students – access to international films and shows, curated based on students’ nationalities and available with multiple audio and subtitle options.
- Improving student wellbeing – entertainment helps combat loneliness, with Watch Parties and operator-hosted film screenings fostering a sense of community.
- Supporting student budgeting – no subscriptions or extra fees.
A recent market research study on the impact of an operator-owned bespoke streaming solution for students found that: 88% of students love the service, 46% of students said they would consider renewing their tenancy, 77% said it improved their overall student experience.
“Our students at Student Experience Amsterdam Minervahaven have access to an incredible selection of movies from the comfort of their own studio. We’ve partnered with Filmbankmedia to bring exclusive movie screenings to the complex through our brand-new Student Experience Movie Hub, so our students can enjoy the best and the latest movies whenever they like.”

A tailored entertainment experience
Filmbankmedia has curated a collection of films and TV shows to reflect students’ tastes and will continue to work closely with Student Experience to refresh the selection of titles.
Students also have the opportunity to share their preferences for future additions, ensuring a mix of new releases, all-time classics, and nostalgic favourites.
“We are passionate about this partnership with Student Experience. With entertainment playing a vital role in student wellbeing and social engagement, the Student Experience Movie Hub is set to be a real hit with its dedicated viewers – offering students a convenient, cost-saving, and community-focused way to enjoy their favourite films and TV shows, seamlessly streamed to personal devices and common areas.
