Over the last two years, Agnès Salson and Mikael Arnal travelled across Europe looking for innovative practices in independent cinema exhibition. Starting in France, they eventually crossed twenty countries, meeting more than 200 cinemas. At the end of the French Tour they published Rêver les cinemas, demain (Dream the cinemas, tomorrow) a book detailing their journey, and following the European journey they published “The emerging practices of cinema exhibition in Europe” report for the CNC (National Centre for Cinema – France). When they started this project, they wanted to find inspiration and advice to create their own cinema but they also wanted to answer a question: What will the independent cinema of tomorrow be like? Here are five ideas they brought back from their journey that are changing cinemas across Europe.
