Reception ‘I loved finding out that my 6 year old could enjoy a foreign language film.’
‘I had never been in this venue before today but I found it very enjoyable. I would
say the only improvement would be to advertise more so other people can enjoy it
like I did.’“The mature attitude. I didn’t feel patronized and was spoken to as an
equal.”
