Entertainment One Films, formerly Koch-Lorber Films, launched in February 2003, is an independent film distributor and DVD label based in Los Angeles. It is one of several subsidiaries of Entertainment One.[6]

Entertainment One Films specializes primarily in critically acclaimed independent films, classics, documentaries and foreign cinema, and distributes films for both theatrical as well as DVD release. Their catalog includes foreign film classics such as La Dolce Vita, Peau d'Âne (Donkey Skin), The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, The Official Story, and Theorem as well as contemporary releases such as The Syrian Bride, Changing Times, Man Push Cart and the documentaries Our Brand Is Crisis and The Bridge.[7]

Michael Koch and Richard Lorber are the Chairman/CEO and President, respectively.

In May 2015, Entertainment One consolidated its feature film creative development, production, and international sales activities under the new banner Entertainment One Features (eOne Features). The division aims to produce and fully finance six to eight films annually, in addition to its existing territorial acquisitions. The division also includes a boutique sales outfit, Seville International, which is based in Montreal. eOne Features is led by President Xavier Marchand, who reports to Steve Bertram.
