Kino (movement)

Cinema [ cinema ] ( from Ancient Greek κίνησις for kinesis movement ) is an international movement of filmmakers.

Concept and dissemination

Its members (Fr. kinoïtes ) meet monthly in locally organized groups to show their predominantly non - commercially produced films on canvas and give each other feedback. The screenings are open to the public and are also used by non-members to present their films, because basically everyone brought film is to be shown.
