Comments The web page detailed introduces Electric Shadows Cinema, and which also has been served as an independent cinema in Canberra for 27 years. Electric Shadows was known for its quirky programming style and its informal atmosphere.

Synopsis With the rise of multiplex cinemas around Canberra, competition for films and for audiences escalated, and to compete with the multinationals, Electric Shadows increasingly became a local community cinema, showing the work of Canberra filmmakers, hosting Q&A screenings with visiting filmmakers, and programming a wide range of community-based festivals.

The cinema was operated by the independent distributor, Ronin Films and had the hands-on involvement of Ronin’s director, Andrew Pike.
