World Cinema Amsterdam has become a beautiful Summer tradition. The 6th edition takes place this year from 14 to 23 August in Rialto and De Balie. Before, during and after the festival there will be screenings in the open air, in different locations in Amsterdam. The films will start when it is dark enough, around 21:00h. But come earlier and watch the sunset with us, or just take a bite to eat before the movie begins. Take good note of the dates and locations.
