Athens Ciné

Athens is finally getting its very own independent cinema! The new barcafécinéma: CINÉ

Ciné will bring you a variety of intriguing films from a broad spectrum of countries and cultures. The newest domestic and foreign productions as well as movie classics and retrospectives, feature as well as documentary films will be shown. The selection will include well known crossover independent films and small budget films, discoveries from festivals, and local productions.

Thus the program at Ciné in Athens will be much like those of European art house theaters and selected for profit/non-profit venues in the United States. Most importantly; Ciné will have its own personality through carefully selected films by movie savvy individuals and as a place for Athens film lovers to meet and exchange their views.

True film appreciation is not thinkable without the highest quality of presentation and theater environment. The technical equipment and design of the theaters is therefore given as much care and importance as the choice of films. Stadium seating will allow optimal view of often subtitled films. Greatest efforts will be made to have projection and sound quality on the highest possible level through cutting edge technology.

Fortunately, it’s opening this fall so I’ll be able to catch a couple films before graduation.
