UNIVERCINÉ, THE USMB CINEMA

The Univerciné association was founded in 1996 with the aim of promoting arthouse cinema and research. Since then, the Univerciné team has strived to fulfill this mission by offering the Chambéry public films, exclusively in their original version with subtitles, in a variety of genres (drama, comedy, cinema classics, fantasy, documentaries, etc.). In addition to its regular programming, Univerciné offers themed evenings and screenings followed by discussions with filmmakers and/or speakers. The University of Savoie Mont Blanc is the only university in France to have a cinema with commercial status, allowing it to show all films released nationally.
