In a period where culture is declining more and more in terms of management, marketing and sponsorship, throughout Europe some associative cinemas and alternative broadcasting spaces are appearing against the current industry. They are offering programming which is more personalized and unformatted. They are runs as non-profit organizations, real cultural places for resistance, often runs by volunteers and hard-core film-buffs (cinéphiles). These film lovers, not closed to new technologies, they find films that escape the laws of commercial distribution or unknown pearls to the general public, rare film that discovered in archives or collections. As you can see, all these movie venues are Nova’s first cousins!
In 2010, Nova organized a meeting in the framework of Rotterdam festival, with these cinemas venues from all over Europe. Since then other reunions took place and a network has been established, a network that permits this exchange of information, ideas and propositions of program, as pooling of tools and knowledge. This time, we are going to make it happen again - this weekend in Brussels! Work reunions on daylight and collective-program by evenings. Three nights in a row, we invite you to discover short, long, new and old movies, documentaries, experimental, a bit of fiction, in Serbian, Romanian, German, English, and French… The dreamy occasion to prepare your next cinematic trip somewhere in Europe!
& LABOS
In 2005, another anticipated meeting of Kino Climates, "The meeting of Labos" which was dedicated to collectives laboratories that practice this craft approach of cinema in film (pellicule). Ever since this network never stopped growing and today brings together labs from around the world. Some representatives of this network will join the meeting of Kino-Climates. Who know’s, maybe to consider a next project together?!
