COVID-19.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Row House Cinema temporarily closed. The theater then created the Quarantine Cat Film Festival, a compilation film of cat videos. It then released its annual Sweded Film Festival, which is a compilation of famous films remade in under 5 minutes by amateurs — inspired by the film Be Kind Rewind. Both films were released under Row House Films, when grew to a small film distributor. It acquired the rights to distribute the film "Monuments" in 2021.
In October 2020, Row House Cinema also hosted a pop-up drive-in theater in Pittsburgh's Strip District neighborhood.
