    'OCTOBER' CINEMA OPENS IN GYUMRI

    The Gyumri-based "October" cinema reopened its doors to the cinema lovers.
    This cinema has been a favorite place for many generations of Gyumri
    residents and one of the most important cultural centers of the city. The
    building was planned by Ghazaros Sargsian, the architect, in 1926. After the
    earthquake in 1988, the building was reconstructed and used as a restaurant.

    But last year, by the decree of Gyumri Municipality, the building was sold
    to the Yerevan based "Moskva" Cinema ltd. The company fully renovated the
    building. At present, it keeps in line with the modern criteria and is
    equipped in the best way.

    Many famous artists of Armenia, actors and directors, the officials of the
    city were present at the opening ceremony of "October" cinema. Ridley Scot's
    "The Kingdom of Heaven" was the newly shot film was the first to be shown
    here after the opening ceremony.

    The leadership of the cinema house promised to provide the cinemagoers with
    all the new films and restore the good traditions of "October" cinema.
