Penedo has lived an historical moment, on the last November 13th, with Cine Penedo’s reopening – the city’s first movie theater -, making a mark not only in the projections return, but also consolidating itself as an meaningful mark, specially after the municipality recent selection as an UNESCO Creative City Network.
After decades without commercial activities, since 1962, and episodic use during the Penedo Cinema Circuit first editions in the 70s, Cine Penedo was reopened during the 2023 Edition of Penedo Cinema Circuit.
The place where hundreds of people got back to see movies, receives more people next weekend with the exhibition of the biopic “Mussum, O filmis” and “The Impeachment – Setembro, 1957. Sexta-Feira 13 ”, production about the emblematic episode in Alagoas politics, noted by the shooting inside the State Legislative Assembly.”
The long film about Mussum, the famous musician and humorist from the “Os Trapalhões” group, will be exhibited in two sessions, the first on Friday, December 1st, at 6:30pm., and the next day, at 4p.m.
The documentary, however, which explores the murder of the then Governor Muniz Falcão will be shown in a special session, only on Friday night, at 8:30p.m.
Impeachment is a production contemplated with the IV Audiovisual Production Incentive Award in Alagoas, released by the State Government, through the State Secretariat for Culture and Creative Economy.
The access to all sessions at Cine Penedo is free of charge, with ticket distribution available half an hour before every session, at the cinema box office.
