The cinema has two screens and the screenings will start at 22.15 and also at 00.55 on weekends.
The remodelled Plaza de España also becomes the epicentre of Madrid’s film culture, hosting La Estival, a large summer cinema surrounded by gastronomy and history. Classics such as Singin’ in the Rain or My Girl, and premieres such as Elemental or Megalodon 2 will occupy its sessions this week, with a concert performance of some of the most famous soundtracks in the history of cinema.
