Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award

The Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award is presented to the ensemble cast, director and casting director of a film by the Film Independent, a non-profit organization dedicated to independent film and independent filmmakers. It is named after director, screenwriter, and producer Robert Altman, who is considered a "maverick" in naturalistic films.

The award was first given at the 2008 award ceremony.[1] Since its inauguration, the award was always directly given to the winner, without any other nominees.
