context_page_description: An independent movie theater or indie cinema is a movie theater which screens independent, art house, foreign, or other non-mainstream films. They can be contrasted with mainstream cinemas, which are more likely to screen blockbusters and other popular films.
  Indie cinemas are often characterized by their smaller size and stronger ties to their local communities. Many are also located in historic or nontraditional venues.
  Unlike mainstream cinemas, which almost exclusively draw patrons looking to see a particular film and make no tacit endorsement of the films they screen, indie cinemas often work to cultivate a reputation for good taste by curating a selection of high-quality films, thus drawing patrons who might know little about a film before going to see it.
