"Cinema, mon amour" Special Programme  

The question, what is better – Film or Digital is researched in other documentaries and articles on Cinema. This documentary film is an ode to cinefilm, projectors and people, who spend their lives in projection rooms. All projectionists, you will see in this film, not only will explain you explicitely, what is the core principle of the cinema projector, which did not change throughout 120 years of cinema history, but also will overwhelm with love for this particular type of cinema presentation, which is slowly dying and going to the past.
