Cinemas in the Dominican Republic were shutdown when lockdown was ordered in mid-March for Covid-19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Thursday, 8 October 2020, the movie houses were allowed to reopen. They must only sell tickets for half their capacity. This should not be hard to comply with. Even in non-Covid-19 days movie houses operated most halls at below 50% capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The movie houses are one of the last businesses to be able to get back to business. The new health protocol requires that movie goers wear masks, keep social distancing and purchase their tickets online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the Multicentro La Sirena at Winston Churchill and Gustavo Mej\u00eda Ricart avenues announced the opening of a drive-in cinema in their fifth floor parking area. The cost of the film per car (max 4 persons) is RD$1,500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the first films to show at indoor cinemas are:
The Hunt, I Still Believe, Invasion, Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs, Bloodshot, Unidos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In another development, \u201cMy 500 Crazy People,\u201d (Mis 500 Locos), the Leticia Tonos film based on the book by Dominican psychiatrist Antonio Zaglul is scheduled to open for Dominican audiences at cinemas on Thursday, 15 October 2020. Waddys J\u00e1quez and Lenin Compr\u00e9s wrote the script. The drama takes place in 1953 during the cruel dictatorship of Rafael Leonidas Trujillo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
