A low budget film is a very cheaply produced film. Young or not yet recognized directors have no choice but to provide economical films, which should not differ markedly in the end product from normal productions. The actors and technicians of such a low budget film frequently are employed without compensation. They want to assist the artistic idea. Technically, simple film materials or video are used. It is not determined what amount of budget qualifies a film as a low budget production. Low budget is relative from country to country. The most successful low budget film was Deep Throat (1972), which cost only a few thousand U.S. dollars yet brought in over US $600 million, though this number is often disputeed.
