N2  - It can be seen thatglobalisation, which has contradictory dynamics and so, on the one hand helpslocal cultures to be visible on the other hand, causes cultural homogenisationby using transnationalisation as a discourse, results in Hollywood domination overall other national cinemas. However, globalisation facilitate the development of an alternative cinema culture against mainstream commercial cinema by virtueo f communication technologies. And the alternative film making and consumptiono f such films seem to have a similar structure all around the World when itcomes to the point o f being rebellious and anti-system. Although they are alldetermined by the same motivation, the emerging conditions, the historical andcultural developments o f alternative cinemas vary depending on the country.However, it is possible to say that they have many common points such as beinglow-budget, having contradictory issues, giving marginalized cultures thechance o f being represented, using the financial resources and distributionchannels out o f studios...etc. And all these common aspects exist due to thefact that alternative filmmakers in different countries communicate by virtue of developed and expanded communication technologies. In this respect, thisstudy aims to analyse the alternative cinema tradition in two countries chosen,Turkey and Britain, which are quite different from each other on the basis o feconomical development level, cultural and historical features, in order toexpose the similarities and differences. Because the former is representative of developing countries and the latter o f developed ones Turkey and Britain aretwo important countries for such a comparative study. Besides, it is believedthat they have many shared points by means o f globalised alternative cinemaculture. İn accordance with this, this study focuses on production,distribution, exhibition and consumption practices o f alternative fılmmakingin the two countries from a comparative point o f view by analysing the most representativesamples of alternative films in both countries.
