# Movie Recommender

A simple web app to recommend movies based on your text description, using embeddings and cosine similarity.

## How it works

- The app uses [SentenceTransformers](https://www.sbert.net/) to encode your text and the movie descriptions into embeddings.
- Then it calculates the cosine similarity between your input and all movies in the dataset.
- It shows the top 5 most similar movies.

## How to run

1. Install dependencies:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

2. Run the app:
```bash
python app.py
```

Or just run it here on Spaces!
