A wide-angle interior shot of a crowded movie theater from the perspective of the back row. A large, bright white cinema screen dominates the front of the room, flanked by ornate, patterned wall panels and short staircases. The silhouettes of an audience are visible in the foreground, seated in rows and facing the illuminated screen.
