The Cinema Travellers

A benevolent showman, a shrewd exhibitor and a maverick projector mechanic bear a beautiful burden - to keep the last travelling cinemas of the world running.

Graham Fuller of Screen Daily declared, "Whatever masterpieces, if any, bow at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, it is likely none will communicate the excitement engendered by movies more headily than The Cinema Travellers."

Schager wrote, "Recalling Giuseppe Tornatore’s 1988 Oscar winner "Cinema Paradiso" in its effusive love of 20th-century celluloid splendor, this five-years-in-the-making film should entice theatrical-loving cinephiles.

Benjamin Lee of The Guardian gave it four stars and wrote "There’s not a moment that feels forced or tweaked to ensure an emotional beat gets checked off, which results in both immersion and authenticity at every stage of the film."

"[8]Tom Brook of BBC Talking Movies[9] interviewed the directors in Cannes and included the film in his special coverage from the festival.
