Mumblecore

You are drawn to a good laugh, real life and real streets and strong feeling.

Low-budget American films of the 2000s made with friends, with natural dialogue and very little plot, about the awkward relationships of young adults. The mumble in the name is the half-improvised talk. Its neighbours and heirs are included. (2002 – 2013)
