It is in Yaounde, the capital, that the project will be executed. The French group Canal +, is the instigator of this cultural project.

The fact spread when subscribers of Canal+ in Cameroon received emails to a survey of their preferences in the field of cinema and shows. “Your contribution will enable us to offer programs and events that meet your needs,” wrote Canal+. It is for the last quarter of 2016 that the project will be executed. Other cinemas are also announced in Douala and Bafoussam.

Cameroon suffers since 2003 from the absence of cinema throughout the national territory. Cameroonians witnessed the agony of many movie theaters such as “Le Paradis,” “La Berlise,” “Le Grand Canion” in Douala, and “Le Mfoundi ‘in Yaounde. And in 2009, it was the end of movie theaters in Cameroon with the closures of cinema “Le Wouri» in Douala and “Abbia” in Yaounde owned by Victor Fotso. Personnel management problems, facilities, and financial resources were often mentioned.

A situation that has devalued movies, actors and other people affiliated with this cultural field in Cameroon.

Alternative solutions have been developed for some time to avoid the complete disappearance of the 7th art in Cameroon, including film screenings in festival halls, and cultural centers of the country.

Hope, however is reborn for the Cameroonian cinema. Although the hour is to observation as industry players don’t know even how Canal + intends to use these cinemas.
