These little montages recently published with the hashtags “still not” and “still there” on the Concorde Facebook page is a prank from one of the last of the Mohicans of independent cinema, which has made many of his followers react.
“The idea, behind these somewhat provocative messages, was to show what the Concorde could have become if we had given in to the financial pressure on real estate in Nantes, writes Sylvain Clochard. A parking ? Fast food ? An insurance company, fancy accommodations? But it is nothing. We have kept our soul, our vocation and our mission as an international neighborhood cinema. »

Ah, Concorde, we love you.
