Solovey Cinema, Movie theater in Krasnaya Presnya, Moscow, Russia.
Solovey Cinema was a movie theater in the Krasnaya Presnya district with multiple screening rooms and modern projection technology. The largest screen had unusually generous proportions, making it a significant venue for film presentations in the city.
The building was designed in 1959 by architect Yuli Isaakovich Filler and operated as a cultural venue for many decades. It closed its doors in 2019, ending its long run as a working cinema.
The cinema served as a gathering place where audiences could experience both new releases and celebrated older films. Extended runs of certain productions reflected how much viewers connected with particular stories.
The cinema was easily accessible by public transportation and offered multiple screening rooms showing different films at the same time. It had concession stands inside where visitors could buy drinks and snacks to enjoy during their time there.
The cinema became known for an unusually extended run of a French film that played continuously for over two years. This unusual programming choice made the place stand out in the city's film history.
