In the process, the very own and soon forgotten stories of the cinema operators from that time come to light again. The result is a special snapshot of cinema, ten years after digitalization, in the middle of a pandemic, with many stories from the "good old days" and yet not just nostalgia. With the worries about the uncertain future of cinema, but also the confidence of many passionately active cinema people.
