The World Cinema Institute™ is a film festival network, born in 2020, in support of the movie theater Industry and the theatrical experience.
INTRODUCTION
Let's start with this notion: movies are meant to be seen first and foremost on the big screen. The Cinema Industry is inevitably shifting towards the streaming services, and we're going to witness a huge transition in 2021 from new policies activated by many film distribution companies. The way we experience movies are about to change... forever.
The World Cinema Institute™ was conceived to create a new opportunity for movie theaters in selected cities across the World, through a series of high-profile film festivals (existing and brand new ones), exclusively in the best cinemas. We're going to celebrate Cinema, in total safety, in the likes of which we've never seen before.
This is World Cinema Institute™: a global film festival on steroids.

OUR VISION
Can you imagine if you saw movies like Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones, Star Wars or Avatar for the first time on a small home TV or, even worse, on a 10-inch tablet? It's like putting a Ferrari's engine on a Ford Fiesta. A great film must be seen FIRST on the BIG screen, then it can be appreciated in other forms.
There is nothing that can replace the spectacular experience of sharing the magic of a great film with hundreds of other people, sharing strong emotions as if we were one. There will never be any home theater system that can vaguely replicate the sound and visual quality of an IMAX cinema or any movie theater updated with the latest technologies. When you cross the threshold of a cinema, you are going to give yourself two hours of pure and irreplaceable magic.

WHY US, WHY NOW
The World Cinema Institute™ recognizes the importance and social relevance of the numerous streaming services and was not founded to go against them. We are simply creating a new organic opportunity based on how the movie industry is shifting, while keeping the mission of preserving and promoting Cinema in its purest and better form.
We can conclude with a sport analogy: we love watching a match on TV of our favorite football or basketball team, but there's nothing that can replace the emotions and the energy of experiencing the same match in a giant stadium with thousands of other sport lovers.
