Color Film Series at Kino Cameo: «The Wizard of Oz»

This autumn Kino Cameo dedicates a film series to color film. In October and November, four film classics will be shown, presenting Technicolor's wonderful world of color nuances. The screening of Victor Fleming's legendary «Gone with the Wind» (USA 1939) – the opening event on 25.10.2019 – is hosted in cooperation with Fotomuseum Winterthur and The Short Film Festival of Switzerland.

About the film «The Wizard of Oz»: When a hurricane takes twelve-year-old Dorothy, her dog and her house from a somewhat dull farm in Kansas to the magic realm of Oz, everything changes. «The Wizard of Oz» is a musical, fantasy, adventure and animated film for children and adults about the joy of wandering. The candy-colored magic world of Oz, depicted in excessive colors, echoes to this day in pop culture; the traces of the movie can also be found in the cinema of John Waters, Martin Scorsese or David Lynch.
