Celluloid Nights by Cinema Niche

The mission of Celluloid Nights is to revive the unrepeatable experience of watching our favorite films on 35mm film, while a younger generation may have this exceptional opportunity for the first time. While cinemas now project digitally, the experience of screening a film on celluloid is quite different. For contemporary directors such as Christopher Nolan or Paul Thomas Anderson, filming is primarily a creative decision that affects how their works will appear on the big screen. Like them, Celluloid Nights celebrates the materiality of film, recognizing the uniqueness and eternal glory of film as a physical medium.
