Independent films demonstrated resilience at the box office over the Super Bowl weekend, with several limited releases and holdovers achieving notable grosses despite competition from major events. Highlights included strong openings for 'Pillion' and 'Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience,' alongside milestones for A24's 'Marty Supreme' and Focus Features' 'Hamnet.' Global charts were led by the K-pop concert documentary from Stray Kids.
Silent Friend posted the strongest limited debut among indie films this weekend with a $74,400 gross from two New York City theaters. The film earned a per-theater average of $37,200, the highest for a non-English language release in recent months. Blue Film followed with a solid $31,000 from two engagements.
