Screen Machine

The Screen Machine is a mobile cinema that operates across the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Western Isles, Argyll & Bute and North Ayrshire.

The motivation behind the service was simple: to provide small and remote communities with access locally to the same level of cinema experience normally available in large towns.

[2] It was built by French company ‘Toutenkamion’, who specialise in custom-built vehicles, including mobile recording studios, restaurants and travelling galleries.

Toutenkamion mobile cinemas also operate in France, in the Republic of Ireland, and serving British Armed Forces overseas.

[5] Currently the machine visits locations including: Lochgilphead, Tarbert, Argyll and Bute, Lochaline, Isle of Arran, Port Ellen, Tobermory, Tighnabruiach, Tarbet, Ullapool, Gairloch, Dornie, Lochcarron and throughout the Outer Hebrides.
