Lost in Frenchlation: Paris Cinema Series. Saving the Luminor Cinema.

  • Summary

  • On this episode of Lost in Frenchlation, Manon Kerjean and ARBL Murray talk to the crew at the Luminor Cinema, one of the oldest movie houses in Paris, about what it's like to run an art-house theater. From the Paris projectionist shortage to the regulations for film distribution, the story of the Luminor touches all facets of film culture in Paris and, more broadly, France.

    Andy Sellitto is the cinema manager, and Anna Dichio coordinates events as well as heads the awareness campaign to Save The Luminor. They reveal for us what it's like to run this place, in one of the most famous neighborhoods in the world (The Marais), while fighting for the attention of cinema-goers and dodging building owners who want to shut it all down.
