Film: Red Road (dir. Andrea Arnold)
A 2006 indy film, did the festival circuit about a CCTV operator who becomes obsessed with a mysterious man she sees through surveillance. Mysterious and tense for awhile, the end was ultimately anti-climatic. But still, a good film festival movie in the truest sense. No stars. Small. Economical. Modest filmmaking. Per Wikipedia, this got her compared to a young Von Trier and Michael Haneke. It strikes me in thinking about this, the indy world does the same thing Hollywood does, picks their favorite sons and does what it can to self protect and self promote. I suppose that is the business we are in.
