GERMANY: Zazie, Halle
Located in the city centre, on one of Halle’s most popular streets, Zazie Cinema and Bar have been around since December 2000. Kulturinsel, Moritzburg, the cathedral, the market square, Leopoldina, the art academy and the university are in the direct vicinity.
Zazie offers a monthly programme and all employees are all film lovers themselves.
The cinema has 80 comfortable red cinema seats and there are two screenings every evening.
One of the most important aspects of the cinema concept is to show all films exclusively in their original version with subtitles. This is why a significant proportion of the audience and cineastes are foreign-language speakers.
In addition to the fixed cinema programme, themed film events and festivals are also part of the programme.
The audience ranges in age from 16 to 80 years and many of them see almost every film in the cinema. The atmosphere is very personal and at the same time very secular.
When we first moved into the former Ofen-Neubert shop of approx.. 200 square metres, it was empty and we converted the shop into a cinema and a bar. In the summer months, we operate an outdoor seating area with 12 tables in front of the restaurant.
