Kino International

Friedrichshain


The East German film elite once held its movie premieres in this 1960s cinema, whose glamourous get-up of chandeliers and glitter curtains is a show in itself. Today it presents smartly curated international indie hit flicks daily, usually in the original language with German subtitles.

Mondays are reserved for gay-themed movies.
