Presented in celebration of Art House Theater Day! “Art house cinemas are community spaces and we need to make sure they remain a cultural staple where people get to experience art and chop it up together, organize and move things forward. Isolation created by streaming is a part of what allows fascism to grow and the reason why shared spaces are good for humanity. Art House Theater Day is a party you don’t wanna miss. It’s a cinema party!” — 2026 AHTD Ambassador, Boots Riley (director of "SORRY TO BOTHER YOU"). Synopsis: In an alternate present-day version of Oakland, black telemarketer Cassius Green (LaKeith Stanfield) discovers a magical key to professional success – which propels him into a macabre universe. Art House Theater Day (AHTD) is an annual program of Art House Convergence (AHC) that brings audiences together to celebrate all that art house theaters - and independent film - contribute to our cultural landscape: ambitious and innovative art that provokes, challenges, entertains, and inspires.
