A history of Limerick’s single-screen, city centre cinemas: the Abbey, the Carlton, the Central, the City Theatre, the Coliseum, the Lyric, the Savoy, the Thomond, and the Tivoli. The documentary charts their cultural and economic importance from the glory days of the cinemas before television to their slow decline.
