  5. Scenario

    Altmark is located in the northern part of the German region of Saxony-Anhalt. This area of the country is sparsely populated and rural, and is mostly defined by agriculture and a rather frugal architecture reminiscent of that of the Hanseatic cities. It's here that an extensive military site was built in the 1930s. It is used as a training area for the German army and also includes a garrison town, in which parts of the military corps reside. The site covers a surface area of 323 square kilometres. It is the third-biggest military area in Germany and the most modern in Europe.

Unfortunately, he is now stranded with his caravan, the goblins Flybeard and Goatee, the reindeer Shooting Star and even the little angel Matilda.

Frequently asked01 — 07

Which cinemas are covered?

Currently 24 cinemas and film series in Frankfurt and the surrounding area: Astor Film Lounge MyZeil, DFF — Deutsches Filminstitut & Filmmuseum, Cinéma Frankfurt, Harmonie Theater Frankfurt, Filmpalast Hofheim, Kino Kelkheim, Filmforum Höchst, Mal seh'n Kino, Kino Alte Mühle, Pupille — Kino in der Uni, Kronberger Lichtspiele, Eschborn K, Eldorado Arthouse Kino, Kino Köppern, Historisches Museum Frankfurt, Hafen 2 Offenbach, naxos.Kino, Deutsch-Französische Gesellschaft Frankfurt, Hugenottenhalle, Jüdisches Museum Frankfurt, Café Mutz, Museum für Kommunikation Frankfurt, Senckenberg Naturmuseum and TAUNALE – Taunus Filmfest Oberursel.

How current is the programme?

Data is scraped multiple times a day directly from cinema websites. Cancellations, sold-out flags and programme changes usually surface within an hour.

Can I buy tickets here?

No — the Tickets button on each screening links directly to the cinema's own booking page. This site doesn't sell tickets and takes no commission.

What do OmU, OmeU, DF, OV, DCP, 35mm mean?

Language version: OmU = original audio with German subtitles, OmeU = original with English subtitles, DF = German-dubbed version, OV = original version with no subtitles, stumm = silent film (often with live accompaniment). Projection format: DCP = Digital Cinema Package, the digital standard in modern cinemas; 35mm / 16mm / 70mm = analogue film prints on physical stock.

What happens to screenings that have already started?

On today's view, screenings are hidden 30 minutes after their start time, so only reachable showtimes remain visible. A small note at the bottom shows how many have already begun.

Why this site?

Frankfurt has an unusually dense cinema scene — the DFF Filmmuseum, Astor, three arthouse houses, Pupille at the university, Programmkino Rex in Darmstadt, the Murnau in Wiesbaden — but no shared programme. This site lays every house onto one searchable day view.

How do push notifications work?

Subscribe via the "Push Digest" button or the footer link. Three time slots are available: morning (07:00), afternoon (17:00) and a weekly Sunday overview (09:00). Notifications can optionally be restricted to specific cinemas. Sign-up is anonymous — no account, no email — and can be cancelled at any time. On iOS, the site must first be added to the home screen as a web app.
