Dinner & A Movie
Premiere films via unique stream links and partner with local restaurants to deliver dinner straight to viewer homes.
HOW + WHY IT WORKS
Instead of canceling indie film premieres, indie cinemas can create unique streaming links for film fans to stream from home. Partnering with local restaurants to deliver dinner during timed film streams can support other local businesses and provide an incentive for film fans to participate.
EXAMPLE
Row House Cinema in Pittsburgh launched its online portal with the local premieres of two new independent films, the Academy Award-nominated Corpus Christi and Chinese crime thriller The Wild Goose Lake. Ticket prices range from $8-12 with half of the proceeds going to help Row House through its temporary closure.
