"The cinema is the joy of my life, otherwise there is nothing else!” Mr. Siebzehnrübl's Pam Theatre is not only the smallest in the Bavarian town Passau, but also the most peculiar. Time seems to stand still in its single screening room. Clearly, it would have ceased to exist if not for this exceptional 81 year-old man.
