Our Cinema

2025

Our Cinema is a web project that explores what we lose when cinema spaces disappear.

The project screens short animated films about people's memories at the cinema. All films are based on real stories compiled from online forums, with each film selected to represent a specific community or emotion tied to the cinema.

Camera access is required. As of now, this website only works for laptop screens.

Two versions of Our Cinema were made, one in English and one in Korean.
Users choose the language they want and click the ticket to enter the cinema.

There are seven seats to choose from, and each seat plays a different movie.


The computer camera tracks the number of people watching the screen.

When more people gather, the screen changes, allowing for people to watch and comment on new films together. This format encourages the shared, communal experience of cinema spaces. If the viewer leaves the frame, the film disappears.


When you click to exit the cinema, the end credits will roll.
