Is the theater experience back? Independent horror films like Obsession and Backrooms are making waves at the box office. Fresh stories like The Drama and Crime 101 have made their mark. So co-host Nicholas Ybarra and producer Sonja Mereu thought this was a great time to highlight some independent films that are absolutely worth seeing on the big screen while you still can.

- We start with Boots Riley's highly-anticipated, pro-Union, Technicolor powerhouse, I Love Boosters. The film stars Keke Palmer and Demi Moore.

- Second, Aleshea Harris delivers an outstanding directorial debut in the revenge film, Is God Is.

- Speaking of memorable debuts, Sophie Romvari makes her feature debut with the personal and powerful Blue Heron.

All these films can be seen on the big screen through tomorrow, and they are definitely worth seeing while you can. Keep an eye out for more great independent films throughout the year. The more we see them, the more they get made.
