The Det Udom Mini Theatre – Det Udom, Ubon, Ratchathani, Thailand

This is a photographic archive of derelict or converted movie theaters in Southeast Asia. Ever since the convenience of the home entertainment center has become widely available, movie theater-going has been on the path to extinction. Declining audiences and rising operational costs have made the business feasible only for larger conglomerates, while the independent, family-run theater has been squeezed out of the picture. Here their memories are kept alive. Going or gone, but not forgotten.
