Overview

Kinoteatr Rossiya (Russian: Кинотеатр «Россия») is a cinema located on the 50-letiya SSSR Square in Sevastopol. It was built in 1975 according to a design by a group of architects led by Izrail Yefimovich Fialko, with a capacity of 600 seats. It was the first widescreen cinema in Sevastopol, featuring a screen measuring 10 by 22 meters. In 1985, a bas-relief titled "History of the Fleet" (author: Sevastopol sculptor Vyacheslav Vasilyevich Yakovlev) was installed on the facade of the building. After a reconstruction, the cinema reopened in August 2020, equipped with modern technology. It now has a large hall and two small halls for intimate screenings, such as art-house films, and boasts the largest screen in Crimea, measuring 28 meters diagonally. Unlike most cinemas in Russia, it is state-owned. The cinema is a venue for the annual Sevastopol International Film Festival and hosts author evenings with Ukrainian and Russian directors.
