B-Movie

B-Movie sits in Hamburg’s lively St. Pauli district, inside a converted backyard garage with an intimate atmosphere. The cinema holds about 58 seats, making it the city’s second-smallest programme cinema.

Founded in 1987, the venue is run by volunteers through a non-profit cultural initiative. Its programme moves between genre films, older blockbusters, exploitation, trash, underground and experimental cinema. Lesser-known filmmakers and controversial themes also find space here. Film festivals include the Kurzfilm Festival Hamburg, Filmfest Hamburg, and Japan-Filmfest Hamburg. Music film festivals and the Lesbisch Schwule Filmtage Hamburg also take place there.

A 30-square-metre screen supports VHS, S-VHS, DVD, Blu-ray and DCP presentations. The cinema also projects 35-millimetre, 16-millimetre and Super 8 films in their original formats. A stage adds room for theatre performances within the screening space. Its small scale and volunteer-led structure give each programme a direct connection to St. Pauli’s independent cultural scene.
