If you’re looking for a new place to catch everything from local indie films to the old classics, a brand new 36-seat micro-cinema theater opened Thursday on the East Side of St. Paul.

The theater comes out of TriLingua Cinema, which has been running pop-up screenings for the last six years. It’s located in the same building as the East Side Freedom Library.

TriLingua Cinema executive director Sidney Pisano and board member Kazua Melissa Vang shared more about the theater on Minnesota Now.
