The cinema with no films

From Standing Room Only, 1:32 pm on 22 March 2020

Right now the cinemas are staying open - just. The problem isn't just the fact that all the big titles have been pulled. Now it seems that just about any sized film has been withdrawn - even an already-released hit like Military wives. So what is it like right now for a popular suburban cinema/cafe like Brooklyn, Wellington's Penthouse? I'm joined by the owner operator Iain McLeod to look at the present and the future of film-going in New Zealand.
