A movie or film produced using open source software and open source methodology is called an open content film (or open source film). It is usually released with samples or source material (screenplay, script, footage, etc.) that are released under a license which permits other parties to create other derivative works or fan fiction.
The two romantic movies below are great examples of open source films:
Boy Who Never Slept

Boy Who Never Slept was filmed with a budget of $200. Amazing, isn't it?
You can download the film’s script in PDF HERE.
You can also get the torrent file of video source footage (mpg DVD) and audio files (MP3) HERE.
Cactuses

Cactuses is the story of a young man named Simon whose life of rejection and broken relationships takes a turn when he meets an older woman named MaryBeth who works at a cactus shop...
The download page for Cactuses can be found HERE.
Or, you can watch it via Google Video HERE.
I hope more open source films like these two will be produced soon. We should also support them because the purpose of creating an open source film is purely for artistic reason and not for any monetary reward.
