What if movie theaters disappeared?
Panel discussion with Lim Kah Wai, Davy Chou, Polen Ly
Moderated by Fujita Sayana

Imagine a city where the lights dim, but the silver screen stays dark. Imagine a world where cinema is consumed purely in isolation—fragmented across algorithms, laptop screens, and smartphones. We live in an era of unprecedented access to moving images, yet the physical spaces that birthed the art form face an existential question: What happens to culture, community, and the art of storytelling if the movie theater disappears?

This roundtable brings together visionary voices from independent cinema to dissect the loss of the communal gaze, the survival of independent screens, and what it means to make movies when the very architecture of exhibition is shifting beneath our feet.
