The inauguration of a cinema-club at the Foreign Language Center

The inauguration of a free cinema-club for all ages is one of the unique activities and surprises that the Vrancea County Library offers during the “Librarian’s week”.
            Thursday, the 22nd of April, at 1pm, at the Foreign Language Center the inauguration of a new free cinema-club will take place and also the blog will be launched and the first movie will be played.
          The initiator of this unique project in Vrancea is the journalist Sorin Tudose, a young cinema-enthusiast, who wanted to make one of his dreams from college come true. The project, along with its partners the County Library and the  POTPOURRI Association from Focsani, is a very complex one because of its educational and formative component which make it unique and tends to become more than just “watching a movie”.
            After the inauguration, the first official movie, “Farenheit 451”, a “classic” gift, from 1966, will be played for the genre enthusiasts, but also for the librarians; also, the blog “Focsani film-fan club” will be launched (http://clubulcinefililorfocsani.wordpress.com/).
            The club is free for everyone.  The meetings will be held every week, on Thursdays, at 5.30pm, at the headquarters of the Foreign Language Center; the club is open for everyone, regardless the age.
            “Sorin Tudose’s idea was well-received because it is a unique project for our county. The idea is very good also because, for the moment, there is no active cinema in our city. We want to re-create the atmosphere present in a cinema, but our purpose is a more profound one; to be educational and formative, not just for the viewing. We want to teach them about the cinematic art and we do this starting with the book, the original novel. The library has all the necessary resources to permit the club’s members to form a correct and complete view over the seventh art”.

The schedule of the National Librarian’s week in Romania continues at all the library’s sections with a series of events:
Thursday, 22nd of April, 12pm, in the youth section, Earth Day will be celebrated by the parents and children of the No. 6 Kindergarten Focsani; they will be bringing fish for the library’s aquarium under the coordination of educator Oancea Valerica.
Thursday, 22nd of April, 2pm, at the headquarters, the presentation of the collections and services for the Pedagogical Highschool “Spiru Haret” will take place under the coordination of prof. Ion Stanel and Marcu Livia, library’s collaborators.
