Five Star Gift Ideas

If your mom loves indie films, there are a few gift ideas you could consider to make her Mother's Day special and personal:

1. Subscription to a Film Festival: Many film festivals have gone digital, enabling viewers to experience them through streaming. Find out which ones your mom would be interested in and gift her a subscription to a festival pass. This gift will give her access to exclusive independent films and related events.

2. Indie Film Streaming Service Subscription: Gift your mom subscription to an independent film streaming service like Mubi or Sundance Now. This would be a great opportunity for her to discover new indie films and directors, and to expand her movie knowledge.

3. Film Magazine Subscription: Consider gifting a subscription to an independent film magazine like 'Film Comment' or 'Sight & Sound'. These magazines offer insightful articles and interviews by experts of indie films. Your mom can find out about new filmmakers, trends, and movies and get to know more about the indie film world.

4. Indie Film Book Collection: Another gift idea to consider is an indie film-themed book collection. There are so many books out there that talk about the history, theory, and criticism of indie films. You can assemble an indie film library that consists of books like 'Movie Love in the 50s' by Terence Davies, 'Cinephilia and History, or The Wind in the Trees' by Nicole Brenez, or 'Easy Riders, Raging Bulls: How the Sex-Drugs-and-Rock 'N' Roll Generation Saved Hollywood' by Peter Biskind.

5. Private Screening: For a more personal touch, you can create a private screening at home for your mom with all her favorite indie films. Using a projector or TV, make her popcorn and dim the lights, creating a cozy movie theater experience at home.

In summary, your mother's day present should resonate with your mother's love for indie films. Gift her a subscription to a streaming service, a movie festival or a magazine, present an independent film book collection, or organize a film screening where you spend some quality time together.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she gave birth to you.
