Partizanfilm has purchased a ground-floor commercial unit at 230 College Street in downtown Burlington, across the street from the Fletcher Free Library. We are working to turn it into a two-screen “microcinema” that will show first-run independent and foreign films seven days a week, as well as occasional repertory fare.

We undertook this project because we love movies and because we love Burlington. As a cooperatively governed nonprofit, Partizanfilm belongs to the community. Members will receive discounts on tickets and elect our board of directors.

Our two intimate auditoriums (with expected capacities of 31 and 19) will offer comfortable seating, excellent sight lines, and high-quality projection and sound. The lobby will operate as a small bookstore and cafe, serving coffee, snacks, beer, and wine, as well as popcorn.

Movies are meant to be shared experiences — so are most other things. We envision Partizanfilm as a place for both art and social connection.
