Strange but interesting movie. Great ticket price. Saw some great trailers so I'll probably be going again.

One of the few DIY film spots in Brooklyn. I’ve been around twice now, and enjoyed the films I’ve seen here. That being said, it’s a relatively small spot with limited seating, so I would arrive a bit ahead of time. The sound system also leaves a bit to be desired, but there’s not much you can really do about that without capex.

Love this theater. Always showing the rarest of films. Films you can't see streaming or home video. And at an amazingly low admission price

A unique intimate film theater space in Williamsburg. I believe you can rent it out if you're interested. The collective showcases some truly unique films and projects. It's currently the home to Channel 101: NY too. Check out the calendar for all the interesting curated screenings they have. If you're interested in experiencing something new, challenging, and avant-garde, check it out!

Really cool spot, easy to miss if you don’t know it’s there. Always got some great things on worth super cheap prices. Love this place

If you're reading this to investigate the spot you've made a mistake. You thought simple stories and letters would be able to tell you how good it is to grasp one of the smaller jewels of the city in your jaws.

I'll tell you now, head over spend the 5 per person, take advantage of their byob policy and see something that by all rights should be in the city (a place for global cinema to play) and by all rights shouldn't exist anymore (the sleek towers of Williamsburg are all the doom prelude this place needs)
Catch something odd, bring crisps on from a Bodega with your beers, laugh in a place of 25 seats where you and your friends can feel a strange passion for a director a couple thousand miles away or a couple dozen years out of time. These folks are looking to let you know how much you are missing.

I love this theater. Small intimate and lots of fun. They show an eclectic mix of NA dbudget films and documentaries. Only $5 to get in. BYOB. A great option for a fun night out

Great place! Cool people! Movies you'll never see anywhere else... Things you've never even heard of, but always interesting
