However, with those films no longer being distributed on 35mm film, the Moonlite is in danger of closing. Jim must now come up with upwards of $80,000 to purchase a digital projector or face losing his livelihood and more.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_empty_space height=”10″][vc_single_image image=”498″ img_size=”” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” link=”http://centrefilm.org/going-attractions-the-definitive-story-of-the-movie-palace”][vc_empty_space height=”20″][vc_column_text]

Green[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]USA; 103min[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10″][vc_column_text]Alice Guy was the world’s first female filmmaker. But with over 1,000 films produced that span two decades in both Europe and America, why do so few people know about her?
