A filmmaker recalls his childhood, when he fell in love with the movies at his village's theater and formed a deep friendship with the theater's projectionist.

Celebrate Italian Cultural Heritage Month this June with the Colombo Lodge, the Can-Ital Ladies Society, and the Kamloops Film Society! We’re proud to present Giuseppe Tornatore’s award-winning masterpiece, Cinema Paradiso (1988), at Paramount Theatre.

This heartwarming coming-of-age story, set in post-WWII Sicily, explores the magic of cinema, friendship, and time – values central to preserving Italian heritage. Join us to foster cultural understanding, celebrate Italian-Canadian contributions, and experience the beauty of Italian cinema.

Join us in the theatre lobby from 3:30-4:30pm for a post-film reception hosted by the Colombo Lodge and Can-Ital Ladies.
