Maxim

In 1960 there were 49 movie theaters in Helsinki. In 2006 there are only 8 left.

 

The exhibition Kinostalgia is a nostalgic tribute to the old cinemas - the Holga-photographs are taken in fall 2006 in four of the oldest remaining movie theaters of Helsinki: Bio Rex, Orion, Maxim and Forum.
