Something special is happening in theaters right now.
For years, aspiring filmmakers needed studio connections, massive budgets, and industry backing just to have a chance at seeing their work on the big screen. Today, the landscape is changing.
A24's Backrooms began as a passion project from YouTube creator Kane Parsons, whose imaginative and unsettling vision captivated millions online before making the leap to a theatrical feature film. It's part of a growing trend that's giving talented independent creators a real pathway from the internet to the movie theater.
As movie lovers, supporting these films matters.
Every ticket purchased sends a message that audiences want fresh ideas, new voices, and opportunities for independent filmmakers to succeed. Today's YouTube creator could become tomorrow's award-winning director, but only if viewers show up and support their work.
We're proud to be showing Backrooms at Graham Cinema and helping bring innovative independent filmmaking to our community. If you've ever wanted to see the future of filmmaking unfold in real time, this is your chance. We'll be playing it through next week. Come on out!
