Ottawa Premiere!
Physical media reigns supreme in Kim’s Video, an elegiac tribute to the iconic video store in New York City that inspired a generation of cinephiles before it mysteriously closed its doors and sent its legendary film archive to a small Sicilian village for “safekeeping.” But what starts as an homage to cinema quickly becomes a rescue mission to ensure the eternal preservation of the beloved video collection.
Sitges – Catalonian International Film Festival: Best Documentary award winner!
Sundance Film Festival: NEXT Innovator Award nominee!
5 Stars! “a masterclass” (Moviegoing)
“Kim’s Video is packed with drama, mystery, and humor. ” (Aisle Seat)
“you will certainly be enchanted by this zany, fun, and sometimes unbelievable documentary. It is the kind of non-fiction film that uncovers such shocking and ridiculous things that it’s easy to question its truthfulness, making it all the more entertaining.” (Next Best Picture)
*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
