In the heart of depopulated Galicia, a movie theater survives thanks to Ernesto, a resident of Leiro, in Ourense, who set up a room in the basement of his house 40 years ago.
His illusion resists. She has come to take a mortgage to be able to project Avatar in 3D in a town of 1,500 inhabitants. His passion started with ‘Cinema Paradiso’. When he first saw the classic, he explained, he felt identified.
Ernesto, like Totó, worked in cinemas since he was a child: “The anecdotes that happened there are the same that happened in any town cinema“, he has indicated to laSexa. Thus, he achieved his dream: to have a cinema in the basement of his house.
In this way, he has been offering the seventh art to his neighbors for forty years, who highlight their passion for the seventh art: “All first-run movies, comfortable room, good seats…”.
His illusion is such that, to give Avatar in 3D, He mortgaged his house for a new projector for 50,000 euros. In two months, 7,500 people passed through there.
Ernesto makes it possible for his neighbors in that room to cry, laugh or even die laughing in their living room: “He does it for the love of artbecause he likes it”, has confessed another neighbor.
