Kino Světozor

Prague


The Světozor is under the same management as Žižkov's famous Kino Aero, but is more central, and has the same emphasis on classic cinema, documentary and art-house films screened in their original language – everything from Battleship Potemkin and Casablanca to Annie Hall and The Motorcycle Diaries – plus critically acclaimed box office hits.
