Cinematek

Whether you want to watch a Hollywood musical of the 1930s, a German silent movie of the 1920s, a gritty documentary of the 1970s or just about any period and style film in pristine conditions you’ll find it here.

The Royal Cinémathèque of Belgium, known as Cinematek since 2009, was founded in 1938 and is the largest in Europe with a very broad reach across many different types of films, commercial, non-commercial and documentaries. Johan Vreys, communications director, and Céline Brouwez, programmer, tell us all about it.
