Maverick Cinema since 1999
<h1>SLOWBOAT FILMS</h1> <h2>MAVERICK CINEMA<br />SINCE 1999</h2> <p>Slowboat Films is one of the last remaining bastions of truly independent film - dedicated to authentic & personal cinema made outside of the stronghold of the television and studio system.<br /><br />Over the past 12 years Slowboat Films has gathered a dedicated international cult following for their uncompromising aesthetic and portrayal of underground art & music, radical politics and maverick minds.</p> <p> </p> <h2>M.A. LITTLER</h2> <p>M.A. Littler was raised in the old world and the new world, at airports, on junkyards, in motels and restaurants. He found employment as a bouncer, a barkeeper, a cab driver, a translator, a screenwriter, a journalist – even as an ambulance driver. All employment was short-lived.<br /><br />In 1999, Littler founded Slowboat Films - a haven for truly independent cinema. In his films and writing he has displayed an unhidden affinity for outsiders of all sorts – radical intellectuals, outlaw historians, marginalized artists, obscure musicians and holy con men. When asked about this, Littler says: "I'm interested in people who dance to their own beat, prototypes who fix their radio with a blow torch."</p>
