 a Cinema as it honors 110 years as Southeast Ohio’s premier arthouse theate
 r.\n\n \n\nGiuseppe Tornatore’s 1988 classic film Cinema Paradiso was chose
 n as the film to kick off the celebration because it is all about the joys 
 and pleasures of movie-going\, moviemaking\, and projection. It’s a nostalg
 ic\, international film that shows how local theaters shape our lives\, com
 munities\, and connections. Ultimately\, it’s about how our local theaters 
 bring people together through film\, and is emblematic of The Athena Cinema
 ’s core goal as Southeast Ohio’s premier arthouse theater: to show high-qua
 lity films that bring our community together.\n\n \n\nAbout the film\n\nSal
 vatore Di Vita\, a famous Italian film director\, learns of the unfortunate
  death of a man who served a very important role in life. Alfredo was the p
 rojectionist of the Cinema Paradiso\, the movie house in the small\, war-to
 rn village where Salvatore grew up during WWII. The old man’s death prompts
  Salvatore not only to return to his village for the first time in 30 years
 \, it also causes him to flashback to his childhood – a time when he first 
 met Alfredo\, discovered the magic of cinema\, and was set upon the path th
 at would define his life.
