One of the most interesting cinema clubs in Moscow or just for Muscovites? No, most likely, this is the place where cinema truly lives, even if it seems that it has gone out of fashion. Website illusion-cinema. ru, without further ado, shows that they don’t just show films here. Read them here. They are worried. Sometimes they even hear the screen making noise.
The schedule includes everything: from classics to modern existential nonsense. For example, Then. Now. Then - a film that can be about love, about time, about how you have already forgotten what memory is. And then another showing of the same film - but in a different hall. It was as if the very idea of time had become visible.
What does archival cinema have to do with it? It seems like a long time ago someone filmed A Long Happy Life, and now it has been restored and shown on a large stage. No advertising. No loud trailers. Just a movie. Something that doesn't need to be sold. It sells itself.
There is a small and a large hall. There are VIP areas. And in these zones there are films that do not always fit into standard categories. Like Band of Outsiders or Opera Festival. It's not just entertainment either. It's almost like a religious practice to sit silently and watch how people move across the screen, how they breathe, how they lose themselves.
Sometimes there is theater in cinema. Like Turandot. Do you know if this is an operetta? Play? Movie? Well, yes, all together. Or Living Your Life - a film by Jean Renoard, where the main character smokes, talks about love, etc. doesn't seem to do anything. But you feel: she lives. That's how this cinema works. He doesn't tell a story. He allows you to experience it.
I also had a good run here One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - several sessions. It seems that this is not one film, but a whole series of thoughts built around one image - a man who is against the system. Maybe he's right. Or maybe not. The main thing is that it is shown again and again. It's like they're waiting for someone to understand.
Maybe this is an old cinema hall. Maybe this is a new project. Doesn't matter. What's happening here is not just a movie. It's as if each film was its own prayer. And they are all in one place. At one time. Even if you come only for the Gentlemen, then you stay because of the bright sun. Why? Because the film itself hooked me. You no longer know where art ends and life begins.
Oh yes, especially on Sundays - there is a lot of interesting things there. For example, Rashomon or Hiroshima are shown in the evening, so it’s better to buy tickets right away.
Just come. Sometimes you need to register, sometimes you don't. But more often than not, if you want to sit next to those who know what a real screen test is, it’s better to book a seat in advance.
Buy a ticket - that's all. The website says: BUY A TICKET. So it's probably possible. Or maybe not. You just need to go in and ask the administrator.
Everything is like in the movie: there are halls, there are places where you can feel special. Or, on the contrary, completely ordinary. It all depends on what movie it is today.
This is a series of watching films from different countries. It was as if the whole world had gathered in one room. There is Street Without Sun, Live and others. I don’t know why, but it seems that these pictures are especially important for those who like to think.
Sometimes you think: does this even work? Maybe all these schedules are just a test page? But then you see The Long Walk being shown twice, or 2046 appearing on the list, and you realize, yes, there are real things happening here. And they are not about money. They're about cinema. About stopping. Breathe. Sit. Try to understand.
After all, if the site were a stub, he would not write such lines as Then. Now. After. No hosting company will come up with such a phrase. This is a living place. Where each session is like a small moment of immortality.
