Celebrating Cinema from Here and Elsewhere

Are you finding your movie outings costly? Is Netflix, Crave or Illico offering too much of the same?

Located in the Little Green Library, at 4 Lorne Street in Huntingdon,

Ciné-Cinema presents movies made outside the Hollywood box and not often shown in conventional movie theaters.
