Belarusian cinema does exist!
Why locals love it
A cozy backyard with a bridged "Youth" fountain under a willow tree behind the wonderful Red Church is frequently occupied by couples and families with children. But probably few know that a little house by the water accommodates the Belarusian Cinema History Museum, where cinema-addicts can appreciate vintage cinematographic devices and more.
Why you should visit it
Foreigners might get to know the history of the most well-known Belarusian films, including the very first one, at displays with shots and explanations. Extracts will be running on TV on the background and travellers may this way enrich their must-see list. Additionally, in the exhibition hall you can see how an old animated film was made.
Special tip
The museum runs regular screenings of vintage movies - check the schedules at afisha.tut.by/film.
