The Plevna cinema complex within the Finlayson area is operated by Finnkino and screens current releases in multiple screens. More interesting for cinema enthusiasts is the Valeasema (also known as Vale) in the same area — an arthouse cinema that programmes international and documentary films, Finnish cinema, and retrospective series.
If you are in Tampere during the Tampere Film Festival in March, many festival screenings take place in these venues. Outside the festival, the arthouse programme is among the better in Finland for international cinema — programming is influenced by the festival's presence in the city.
