Canyon Cinema
Canyon Cinema's unrivaled collection of more than 3500 films traces the history of the experimental and avant-garde filmmaking movement from the 1930s to the present.
Canyon's primary activity is the distribution of 16mm films, videotapes, and DVDs by independent film artists. Independent filmmakers, unlike commercial filmmakers or studio artists, rarely receive financial compensation for their work.
