Movie lovers bringing back cinema to Kirkuk

There used to be six movie theaters in Kirkuk, but all of them have been removed to make way for shops and car parks. 

In an attempt to bring back cinemas to Kirkuk the House of Cinema, which was formed a few months ago, is starting to show movies once a month. 

Khaiam, Salahadin, Atlas, Cindibad, Hamra, and Alamin were the movie theaters which attracted many moviegoers in Kirkuk in the 1950's to 1970's. 

But there is no cinema in the city today.
