LantarenVenster is a small art cinema and theatre in the south of Rotterdam close to Hotel New York and the New Luxor Theatre. There are five small intimate screens in the theatre. They show non-commercial films from the alternative circuit and focus on independently made films with usually lesser-know actors.

Art movies
LantarenVenster's programme includes new releases of art movies mainly from Europe and Asia. All movies are carefully selected and give insight in new worlds. There are expiremental movies, movies with new talents or amateurs and movies with big names and all of them are very special. In additon to the new releases you can enjoy film classics and documentaries in LantarenVenster. There's also a special inspiring programme for kids, that usually doesn't include the Disney movies that you can see in the mega cinemas. These movies for families are shown on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons, but during schoolholidays LantarenVenster shows them every day. Every monday evening you can enjoy a sneak preview in LantarenVenster and see a movie that hasn't been broadly released yet.

Cinema Café
There's a very nice café included in the cinema where you can have a drink or a bite before or after the movie. On warm days you can sit outside at the terrace along the river.
