Cinema Massimo

Cinema Massimo is a cinema in Turin, Italy. According to its official website, it is the main reference point in Turin for film enthusiasts and for humanities students at the nearby university. The building was constructed in the 1930s, bombed in 1942 during the Second World War, rebuilt after the conflict, and operated until the early 1980s. It was then purchased by the City of Turin, renovated and transformed into a multiscreen cinema, and from 1989 became the venue of the Museo Nazionale del Cinema. Today it has three screens: the largest with 450 seats on the ground floor and two with 146 seats on the first floor. The first two screens show first-run arthouse films, while the third is dedicated to retrospectives, tributes and events. The three screens are equipped with 4K digital projectors, 16mm and 35mm projectors, all video formats and Dolby Digital 7.1 sound. The cinema screens over a thousand different films a year, all in original language with Italian subtitles, including first-run programming, film-library activities, school activities and film festivals.
