Nottingham's smallest cinema with a colourful past is staging a comeback

Nottingham's smallest cinema is set to reopen on Saturday, August 6 after being given a new lease of life as Mammoth, a Climate Change Cinema. The venue was formerly known as Screen 22 before it closed in 2015.

The cinema has had a long history in the city centre after it was opened as a cinema showing 'adult films' in the 1970s. It was featured in the Guinness Book of World Records for a few years for being the smallest cinema in the world as it only had 22 seats in the entire building.

Owner Patrick Hort has taken on the building with the motivation of maintaining and keeping the cinema alive. Although the cinema was in fantastic condition, the building was falling apart and needed a lot of work.
