Himself
Los ‘repertory cinemas’ son locales especializados en la proyección de películas clásicas y de culto que están gestionados por auténticos apasionados del cine. En Estados Unidos, Canadá y en los países anglosajones han formado parte imprescindible, durante años, de su panorama audiovisual, manteniendo viva la llama del séptimo arte como cultura y conocimiento más que como negocio o mero espectáculo. La película se centra en una de estas salas, The Underground Cinema of Toronto, y en el trabajo e ilusiones de sus responsables, tres entusiastas que tienen que luchar contra viento y marea, enfrentándose a todo tipo de dificultades, para que su pequeño recinto continúe en pie. A lo largo del largometraje intervienen también cineastas tan conocidos como Atom Egoyan, Kevin Smith, John Waters y George A. Romero que expresan su deseo de que estas salas no desaparezcan nunca para que sigan contribuyendo a la difusión del cine como arte y cultura.
