The art cinema and the distribution company offer the value added to the film experience or even shift this experience beyond the boundaries of a traditional concept of cinema. The practical part focuses on the chosen examples of alternative programs. It describes the circumstances about their formation, the original purpose and goals, the practical way of their organization and realization. Another objective of this part is to outline the future visions and to evaluate the importance and the success of these projects.
