Mean Girls 35mm (Celluloid Nights by Cinema Niche)

The team behind Cinema Niche will launch a new series of screenings in spring 2024. The mission of Celluloid Nights is to recreate the unrepeatable experience of watching your favourite films on 35mm film, while giving a younger generation, perhaps for the first time, this unique opportunity. While cinemas now project digitally, the experience of projecting a film on celluloid is quite different. For contemporary directors such as Christopher Nolan and Paul Thomas Anderson, shooting for film is first and foremost a creative decision that influences how their work will appear on the big screen. Like them, Celluloid Nights celebrates the materiality of film, recognising the uniqueness and eternal glory of film as a physical medium.

A cult classic of the early 2000s, the film that generations of teenagers have grown up with since its first release, is now being shown again in Hungary in an unusual venue, the auditorium of the Uránia National Film Theatre, on 35mm prints as part of the Celluloid Nights series.
