A place worth knowing
Cinema Village occupies a former fire station on East 12th Street. Its three screens focus on independent and international films, with occasional filmmaker appearances adding another reason to choose a particular session.
The compact location makes a screening easy to combine with an evening in the Village. The programme identifies open-caption screenings separately, a useful detail when comparing sessions.
