I got enlightened to the isolated cinema, & I hope my readers are as excited about it as I am.
My experience of this festival was that I saw the film “One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest”. Unfortunately I don’t remember a lot about the experience but I do remember that all the staff were dressed like physiatric nurses.
The place was themed like a mental hospital. The staff were actors, acting like they were staff in a psychiatric hostel.
I can’t remember exactly what it was but there were snacks kind of like how popcorn is a normal cinema snack, but these have a film released twist.
In the past the festival’s focus has been “Social Distances”; adventures, things that excite the senses. It relates to how the world is right now in the wake of the pandemic. It queries what films mean when we are isolated completely, in the festival we’re just completely focused on the film .
The point of the festival is that the audience gives their full focus on the film. Also, the whole event is themed on the film so all the food & drink stands are themed around the film the staff are dressed in uniforms that match the theme.
