From the Picture Palaces of the 1930's through to present day, the documentary explores the vast scope of cinemas that existed within the city and questions their decline over the decades. Including footage and interviews with projectionists and managers, the documentary presents some stunning imagery of cinema interiors such as the 'ABC Lime Street' and the Plaza Cinema in Crosby. For anyone over the age of 40 this film will 'take one back to their childhood' as stated by Alan Bleasdale after viewing the documentary.
