Cine Arte Posto 4

Cine Arte Posto 4 is an arthouse and alternative cinema located in the city of Santos, São Paulo, Brazil. It was founded on 8 November 1991 and is maintained by the Municipal Secretariat of Culture (Secult) of the Santos city government. The cinema is dedicated to screening art films that are commonly ignored by commercial theaters. The auditorium is named 'Rubens Ewald Filho' in honor of the Santos-born film critic. After completing ten years of operation, the programming was reformulated to include alternative productions from various countries, such as France, Spain, and Japan. Partnerships were established with the Alliance Française and the French Consulate to hold a French Cinema showcase. Due to its location on the beachfront and its low ticket price, the cinema attracts an audience of approximately 3,000 people per month seeking leisure and culture. There is a proposal under review by the Santos city government to transfer the cinema to the acoustic shell (concha acústica) located next to Cine Arte, which is currently closed. The cinema remains an important cultural venue in Santos, offering a space for non-commercial films and international cinema.
