An art film is typically a serious, independent film, aimed at a niche market rather than a mass market audience.[1] It is "intended to be a serious, artistic work, often experimental and not designed for mass appeal",[2] "made primarily for aesthetic reasons rather than commercial profit",[3] and contains "unconventional or highly symbolic content".[4] Film critics and film studies scholars typically define an art film as possessing "formal qualities that mark them as different from mainstream Hollywood films".[5] These qualities can include (among other elements): a sense of social realism; an emphasis on the authorial expressiveness of the director; and a focus on the thoughts, dreams, or motivations of characters, as opposed to the unfolding of a clear, goal-driven story. Film scholar David Bordwell describes art cinema as "a film genre, with its own distinct conventions".[6] Art film producers usually present their films at special theaters (repertory cinemas or, in the U.S., art-house cinemas) and at film festivals. The term art film is much more widely used in North America, the United Kingdom, and Australia, compared to the mainland Europe, where the terms auteur films and national cinema (e.g. German national cinema) are used instead. Since they are aimed at small, niche-market audiences, art films rarely acquire the financial backing that would permit large production budgets associated with widely released blockbuster films. Art film directors make up for these constraints by creating a different type of film, one that typically uses lesser-known film actors (or even amateur actors), and modest sets to make films that focus much more on developing ideas, exploring new narrative techniques, and attempting new film-making conventions. Such films contrast sharply with mainstream blockbuster films, which are geared more towards linear storytelling and entertainment. Film critic Roger Ebert called Chungking Express, a critically acclaimed 1994 art film, "largely a cerebral experience" that one enjoys "because of what you know about film".[7] For promotion, art films rely on the publicity generated from film critics' reviews; discussion of the film by arts columnists, commentators, and bloggers; and word-of-mouth promotion by audience members. Since art films have small initial investment costs, they only need to appeal to a small portion of mainstream audiences to become financially viable.

Krasny Prospekt-runs through the territory of the Central and Zaeltsovsky districts. Being one of the first streets of the city, the Avenue has its own unique history and can rightfully be considered an open-air Museum. Access to Krasny Prospekt is provided from the metro stations "Lenin Square", "Krasny Prospekt", "Gagarinskaya", "Zaeltsovskaya".

The Avenue was included in the plan of the village of Novo-Nikolaevsk in 1896. From this time, the construction of the future main street of the settlement, which received the status of a city in 1903, began. The Avenue was originally named in honor of Emperor Nicholas II of the Russian Empire. In 1920 the Nikolaev prospectus has been renamed to Red.

At the beginning of the XX century, active development of the Central street is underway. In 1911, the City's commercial building was built on the New Market square (now Lenin square). Today, the Novosibirsk Museum of local lore is located here. In 1915, the Grand opening of the chapel of St. Nicholas, which was destroyed in 1930. The chapel was restored for the 100th anniversary of Novosibirsk and today is considered one of the symbols of the city.

Krasny Prospekt, about 7 km long, is the center of sights and architectural monuments of Novosibirsk. Here, old buildings alternate with buildings of the modern period-shopping centers, various public institutions. A special decoration of the street is the complex and unique architectural complex of the Novosibirsk Opera and ballet theater.
