One of the major differences between a multination, vertically integrated, cross media conglomerate such as Sony Pictures Entertainment who have international backing, and an independent production company is that indies generally make films that cater more specifically for niche audiences.
The lower budgets of British films often dictate that they may not have internationally recognisable stars and as the film is targeted to British audiences, the choice of locations (mise-en-scene) are British and narrative themes (racism, class difference, abuse) are more challenging and controversial. The historical and cultural references are also specifically British and rely on audiences historical knowledge of British history.
