Once again, Kinoproekt in alliance with Christie – a global leader in digital cinema projection – has become a general partner and provided technical support for both events.
The 21st Kinotavr Film Festival was inaugurated on 6th June and lasted for a week through to 13th June, 2010.
During the Festival and Film Market on two main stages – in the hall of the Winter Theatre, where the presentation of the competition program has traditionally been held, as well as in the hotel complex Zhemchuzhina, digital 4K-ready DLP Cinema projectors (Christie CP2220) from the new Christie Solaria line, coupled with DoReMi DCP2000 servers, were installed.
“These two events in Sochi – the Kinotavr Festival and the summer Film Market – are the key events for the Russian motion-picture industry and they attract all the renowned personalities”, comments Alexander Rubin, CEO of Kinoproekt, “With every year, the number of films in DCP format represented both within the scope of the Festival and in various out-of-competition programs, has increased.
