Reception ‘I loved finding out that my 6 year old could enjoy a foreign language film.’

‘I had never been in this venue before today but I found it very enjoyable. I would

say the only improvement would be to advertise more so other people can enjoy it

like I did.’“The mature attitude. I didn’t feel patronized and was spoken to as an

equal.”
