Popis: This is an Author's Original Manuscript of an Article whose final and definitive form, the Version of Record, has been published in the Creative Industries Journal, 2020, 13:1, available online at: https://doi.org/10.1080/17510694.2019.1652024 The self-styled #Littlesecretfilm phenomenon is a low-cost film production and distribution movement that was launched in Spain in 2013. Based on a reconstruction and examination of its development from its foundation (with the publication of a manifesto in the form of ten commandments) through to its products (a full survey of which are presented here), this article offers a meaningful and not entirely uncritical snapshot of a conscious proposal of a low-cost production model in contemporary Spain. In our conclusion, we tie this film movement in with international debates about the viability of a low-cost approach in the context of a national film industry that has been left badly battered by the financial crisis that began in 2008.
