Two Tatarstan cinema halls will be modernized within the framework of the national project "Culture"
The Cinema Fund announced the results of the seventh competition to support cinemas in settlements with a population of up to 500 thousand people. There are 2 cinema halls from Tatarstan in the list of winners.
Since 2019, the modernization of cinemas has been one of the activities in implementation of the Cultural Environment project. So, last year in the Republic of Tatarstan 6 cinemas were provided with modern digital equipment: one each in Yelabuga and Novosheshminsky districts, 4 in Zelenodolsky. Then, for the first time, a subsidy from the Cinema Fund in the amount of 20 million rubles was received by a commercial organization Vita LLC. A cinema "Kinograd" with 4 modernized cinema halls for 322 seats was opened in the village of Osinovo.
In 2020, another commercial organization from the village of Vysokaya Gora, LLC TOP, submitted an application for modernization of the cinema. The second winner was the District House of Culture MBU, urban-type settlement Urussu, Yutazinsky District, which has participated in the Cinema Fund competition since 2017.
Reference: In total, in 2020 the Cinema Fund will support 61 cinemas in the settlements of the Russian Federation. 5 million rubles were allocated for modernization of each cinema hall on a non-refundable basis.
A prerequisite for the converted cinema hall is the demonstration of films of domestic film production in the amount of at least 50% of film screenings and the implementation of regular film screenings for at least 100 days per calendar quarter.
During the competitions held in 2015-2019, 1,015 cinemas were supported, 28 of them in Tatarstan.
By the end of 2020, the number of modernized cinemas in Tatarstan will grow to 30.
The national project "Culture" was developed as part of the implementation of the presidential decree "On national goals and strategic objectives of the development of the Russian Federation for the period until 2024". The national project "Culture" includes three federal projects: "Cultural Environment", "Creative People" and "Digital Culture".
