The
public enters into Cinemachina via an elevator located between two gigantic
wheels. In the different levels of exhibition, they discover a collection
of old projectors coming from the history of cinema. The projectors
are presented according to their specificities, some of them showing
the film coming from the entrance wheel.
At the end of the visit, 24 projectors
project the film arriving from the debtor wheel at the entrance. 24

The public stands next to one of the 24 loudspeakers on the floor and
listening to the soundtrack corresponding to one of the images projected.
