Watching films in the cinema often brings us joy other than just the film itself. However, not everyone has the same easy access to the cinema experience. Kino Úsmev, a cinema based in Košice, has been putting effort into inclusive activities for various vulnerable groups for several years. These include, in particular, inclusive film screenings and an inclusive film school. By respectfully listening to disadvantaged groups, their experiences and needs, we can break down spatial, technical and other barriers, and enable the fullest possible cinema experience for a diverse audience.
