Cinema under the stars — A very colorful caravan, a few beer benches, a piano and a popcorn machine. That’s all it takes for an open air cinema and the magic of Cinema Paradiso. In September 2016 the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus will present selected audiovisual works by young filmmakers from North African and Arab countries. The caravan will travel through the city of Düsseldorf/Germany and will stop at various refugee camps and in front of the Café Eden at Junges Schauspiel Düsseldorf.
