Project Description

The Livonian Cinema is a traveling movie theater that collaborates with individuals, collectives, and communities throughout Southern California to create site-specific events. Though each movie night differs from the next, the Livonian Cinema’s overall goal is to explore:

1) how the movie-going experience can eschew escapism and reflect something of its real world surroundings;
2) how the structure of cinematic events can transform in relation to the histories and creative spirits of those involved; and
3) how a warm and inclusive atmosphere can encourage a sense of discovery in audiences.
